FIVE FIGURES
I n a recent paper (Blum, et al., '57) were presented the results of exposing the forearm of Amblystoma larvae to ultraviolet radiation. I n particular, data were obtained on the regression of the irradiated forearm, the retardation in regeneration which resulted when amputation was made through the irradiated region, and the abnormalities which occurred in the regenerates.

## Abstract The forelimb of the newt, __Triturus (Notophthalamus) viridescens__, was bilaterally amputated and the animals subjected to different photoperiods during the period of regeneration, namely (1) continuous light, (2) 15 hours of light/day and (3) total darkness. Animals exposed to continu
## Abstract A cyclic seasonal variation in forelimb regeneration in the newt, __Notophthalmus viridescens__, was noted under controlled environmental conditions at 20Β°C in previous experiments. Regeneration was enhanced in the summer months and reached its maximum linear growth rate in late springβ
