Abstract
The temperatures of the left testis, and of the adjacent viscera, of 11 anaesthetized quail were measured. The testes averaged 0.6 degrees C cooler than the surrounding viscera and 1.3 degrees C cooler than the fight muscle. We suggest that endothermic reactions are the cause of the testicular temperature being below that of its immediate surroundings.
