Thermoregulatory function of the parietal eye in the lizard Anolis carolinensis.

Victor H Hutchison1,2, Richard J Kosh1,2.   

Abstract

Animals were acclimitized to a daily cycle of 15-25°C and a photoperiod of LD 12:12. Parietalectomized animals in an experimental thermal gradient (15°C-40°C, LD 12:12) selected significantly higher temperatures than controls at all hours of the day except from 0800-1200. These results suggest that the lizard parapineal plays a direct role in thermoregulation in addition to the indirect function as an illuminometer.
