Summary

The study of the relationship between the activity of the thyroid of Cichlid fishes and oxygen consumption has given the following results: The stimulation by thyroxine causes a significant increase of oxygen consumption (+35%) after a long treatment. This increase is not immediate; a latent period is observed till the gland is in repose. The antithyroid rapidly decreases the oxygen consumption (−24%). But this chemical blocking is not stable.
