Vasotocin
Vasotocin is an oligopeptide hybrid of oxytocin and vasopressin found in all non-mammalian vertebrates including birds, fish, amphibians and in fetal mammals. In mammals it appears to have similar biological properties to both oxytocin and vasopressin. It has been found to have effects on the regulation of REM sleep. Its functions in non-mammals are unknown.
