1. Six sites of autonomic post-ganglionic transmission were examined for susceptibility to LSD. Inhibition of transmission by LSD was confined to the three sympathetic junctions. 2. Inhibition of sympathetic transmission was maximal with short trains of pulses and declined considerably as train length was increased. 3. Evidence for a presynaptic mode of action was obtained. This was the predominant effect of LSD in the rat anococcygeus and dog retractor penis because alpha-adrenoceptor-blocking properties were feeble or absent; but in dog splenic strips LSD produced marked post-synaptic alpha-blockade. 4. The presynaptic inhibitory effect of LSD was unrelated to its 5-hydroxytryptamine-blocking property because it was not shared by methysergide. Neither was it mediated by prostaglandin release because it was unaltered by indomethacin, which suppresses prostaglandin synthesis. 5. In the rat anococcygeus and dog retractor penis larger doses of LSD induced slow contractions and, as a result of the concurrent block of motor transmission, revealed relaxation responses on transmural stimulation, caused by the excitation of sacral inhibitory fibres present in these muscles. 6. The LSD contractions were due to stimulation of post-synaptic alpha-adrenoceptors because they were abolished by phentolamine or yohimbine but were present as usual in preparations taken from reserpinized animals. 7. LSD blocked presynaptic alpha-adrenoceptors in the cholinergic motor fibres to the longitudinal muscle of the guinea-pig ileum.
