SYNOPSIS. The Y-organs of crustaceans secrete ecdysteroids (molting hormones) and are regulated (negatively) by a neurosecretory peptide, molt-inhibiting hormone (MIH). Signaling path(s) in Y-organs were explored that connect MIH receptors ultimately

This paper presents a description of the Limulus larval bioassay for ecdysteroid compounds. The Limulus assay is routinely more sensitive than the traditional insect tests and can detect 20-hydroxyecdysone in the low picogram range when test larvae a

The production of ecdysteroids (monitored by RIA) by Y-organs and cephalic glands in vitro was measured and hemolymph ecdysteroid levels were determined in the crayfish,Orconectes limosus, both after eyestalk ablation and as a function of time during

1. 1. The cave crayfish, Orconectes pellucidus inermis , has a circanian rhythm since (a) under constant laboratory conditions the twelve animals that lived more than a year continued to show cycles of molt and reproduction and (b) the periodicity of

1. Annual periods of reproduction and molting of Orconectes pellucidus inermis in Shiloh Cave, Indiana, have been observed. Both sexes of O. p. inermis in Shiloh Cave appear to initiate a new annual period of gametogenesis in early summer. The number

Remains of the free-tailed bat, Tadarida brasiliensis , were recovered from a guano pile in Mammoth Cave, Kentucky. This guano has been radiocarbon dated at more than 38,000 years. This species does not live in Kentucky at the present time. The fossi

Evidence of a circadiam clock mechanism was found in the cave crayfish, Orconectes pellucidus, even though it is blind and has been isolated from daily cycles for at least 25,000 generations. Five of seven crayfish tested under cave conditions of con

The two insect molting hormones, α- and β-ecdysone, and two synthetic ecdysone analogs are highly effective in stimulating molting in horseshoe crab (Limulus) larvae. Effectiveness of the ecdysones is dependent on time during the intermolt cycle. L

Molting in stage 1 horseshoe crab larvae, Limulus polyphemus, can be induced by polyhydroxy steroids that stimulate molting in insects. The effect of the injected steroids in shortening the intermolt period is dependent on dose and time of injection
