Abstract
A study of the parathyroid glands of the Virginia deer (Odocoileus virginianus), taken at intervals throughout one entire year, has demonstrated the almost invariable occurrence, in the cytoplasm of the parenchymal cells, of numerous small basophilic granules. There is no evidence of a seasonal variation in the number or character of these granules, or in other microscopic characteristics of the parathyroid glands, in association with the annual renewal and shedding of the antlers in the [male] deer.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
