✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Development of Harderian gland of larvae of Rana japonica, Bufo bufo japonicus, and Xenopus laevis was studied. In the adult animals, welldeveloped Harderian glands were invariably present in the orbit. In Rana and Bufo, the gland first appeared at late prometamorphic stage and in Xenopus it appeared around climax stage.

In thyroidectomized tadpoles of Bufo and Rana, the Harderian gland was induced by thyrozine. In hypophysectomized tadpoles of Bufo the gland developed when they were treated with thyrozine or TSH.

## Abstract Quantative measurements of taurine in the Harderian glands of male and female CF‐1 mice were made by standard methods of amino acid analysis. Values, in nmoles per mg dry weight of gland, were 60 to 70 in the first 4 postnatal days with a gradual decrease to 31.1 Β± 3.5 at 12 days, just

In anuran amphibians, cranial bones typically first form at metamorphosis when they rapidly invest or replace the cartilaginous larval skull. We describe early development of the first three bones to form in the Oriental fire-bellied toad, Bombina orientalis--the parasphenoid, the frontoparietal, an

## Abstract To elucidate the hormonal regulatory mechanisms of gastric development of the flounder, __Paralichthys olivaceus__, premetamorphic flounder larvae were treated with either 100 ppb of L‐thyroxine sodium salt (T~4~), or 30 ppm of thiourea (TU, a goitrogen) by dissolving drugs in ambient s
