Abstract
EXISTING literature on endocrine aspects of reproduction in cyclostomes has recently been reviewed1,2 and we have already reported the results of a preliminary investigation on controlling mechanisms in the reproductive physiology of the river lamprey, Lampetra fluviatilis2. The present communication records the results of more extensive work.
