1. Juvenile hormone delayed or prevented the onset of metamorphosis by neck-ligated fourth-instar tobacco hornworm larvae and by fifth instars neck-ligated prior to the cessation of feeding.2. After the onset of the wandering period J H had precisely the opposite effects in that it accelerated the onset of metamorphosis. This was the case both for wandering larvae and for pupae, irrespective of whether they were intact or subjected to brain removal or neck ligation.3. These findings point to a previously unsuspected shifting role of JH in the control of metamorphosis.4. Fourth-instar larvae underwent no further development after brain removal unless they were also effectively allatectomized by neck ligation. Evidently the secretion and inhibitory action of JH persists in brainless fourth-instar larvae.5. Brainless fifths, by contrast, were often able to initiate metamorphosis despite the continued presence of their CA. Development could be prevented by daily application of JH. The disappearance of effecti...
