## Abstract In this study we test the hypothesis that lung reduction in amphibians is a larval adaptation to reduce buoyancy and facilitate rheotaxis in lotic environments. Larvae of the spotted salamander __Ambystoma maculatum__ (family Ambystomatidae) were raised from eggs with (= control) and wi
We investigated horizontal smooth pursuit eye movements and hand movements in tracking tasks in order to find out whether hand movements influence eye movements and if so, in what ways. Externally controlled target movements were tracked either by the eyes alone or by the eyes and right hand togethe
To determine whether or not thyroxine stimulates cell division in the tadpole eye by acting directly upon ocular tissues, thyroxine-cholesterol and cholesterol control pellets were implanted into the vitreous chambers on opposite sides of young Rana larvae. From 1 to 20 days later some of the larvae
