Abstract:
Effect of induced hypercalcemia on the ultimobranchial gland of the young and adult lizard, Uromasix hardwickii was studied. Experimental hypercalcemia produced hyperactive changes in the ultimobranchial gland of the young animal. However, no measurable changes were observed in the ultimobranchial gland of adult lizard. It seems that ultiimobranchial gland of the lizard is active only in the young animals.
