All measure- ments were made over the same time of day to avoid the influence of diurnal rhythmic changes. (6) The response of intact and eye- stalkless specimens from black backgrounds to injections of Uca~ RED-DISPERSING HORMONE, URDH, from the sinus gland. Prompt dispersal occurs in the eyestalkless specimen; the dark intact specimen shows pallor first, presumably due to operative shock, (c) The response of similar specimens to injections of an extract of circumoesophageal connectives. The result indicates a short-lived action of t/ca-RED-CONCENTRATING HORMONE, URCH, but is ambiguous, {d) The responses of eyestalkless specimens to in- jections of alcohol insoluble (above) and alcohol soluble (below) fractions of a sinus gland extract, to show that the former contains most of the dispersing hormone, URDH (all from Brown, 1950)..
