Abstract
Changing the L:D time ratio of an entraining light-dark regime leads to characteristic alterations of the resynchronization behaviour of the circadian activity rhythms in night monkeys (Aotus trivirgatus) and African fruit bats (Rousettus aegyptiacus) after 8 h advance and delay shifts of the LD-Zeitgeber. Reduced speed of re-entrainment and occurrence of antidromic resynchronization point to a lower Zeitgeber strength of 24-h LD-cycles with a prolonged D-phase.
