Abstract

Anolis carolinensis were used as experimental models to study the short-term effects of the fertility drug, clomiphene citrate, on male squamate reproductive function. Daily injections of 10.0 micrograms of clomiphene induced an increase in plasma testosterone over a 5 day period. No change in testis mass or morphology was elicited over this time.
