“…The second half of the 20th century saw an explosion of publications on lizards and snakes in The Anatomical Record . Topics include effects of controlled temperature and day length on gonadal development (Bartholomew, ), gross and microscopic anatomy of the liver and gall bladder (Ells, ), osteology and musculature (Evans, ; Bellairs and Bryant, ; Throckmorton, ; Throckmorton and Saubert, ; Rubolini et al, ; Hall, ; Payne et al, ; Direnzo and Stynoski, ), endocrine and reproductive biology (Miller, ; Fox, ; Cavazos and Feagans, ; Neaves, ; Jacobs and Sis, ; Rhoten and Hall, ; Rhoten, ; Jones et al, ; Jones and Summers, ; Moscona, ; Young et al, ), and neurobiology (Zika and Singer, ; Colborn and Adamo, ; Proske, ; Gundy and Wurst, ; Baird and Lowman, ; Sligar and Voneida, ; Yeager et al, ; Pannese et al, ; McDevitt et al, ; Amemiya et al, ). Among the endocrinology papers are three reports by long‐time American Association of Anatomists' member William B. Rhoten, whose research focused on the pancreas of the garter snake (Rhoten and Hall, ; Rhoten, ).…”
