The cellular transport of phenol red has been demonstrated in mesonepliric and inetanephric kidneys, and the metabolic processes involved in the transport meclittiiism analyzed. The present report deals with phenol red transport in the pronephros.

Since the pronephros is the initial kidney in the renal developniental sequence, it is of interest to learn of the role it plays in the development of renal function. Both pronephros and mesonephros a r e present simultaneously for a considerable portion of the larval life of the frog. This has been shown in the analysis of the developnicntal morphology of the pronephros upon which the present experimental series is based. Since Gersh ('37) has shown that the mesonephros and nietanephros of the chick and some niarnnials function synchronously, the pronephros and mesonephros of the larval anuran were examined to determine whether the same situation obtained.

Armstrong ( '32) has demonstrated phenol red elimination in the proiiephric tubules of Fundulzis heteroclitus, and * Material taken from a thesis submitted t o the Faculty of

Rana pipiens were divided into four groups: controls; hypocalcemic frogs, depleted of salts by acclimation to deionized water; hypercalcemic frogs, calcium-loaded by the introduction of 40 ยตmol calcium gluconate; and frogs exposed to the potential competing ions Mg 2+ , Sr 2+ , and Ba 2+ .

## Abstract Histochemical characteristics of the integumentary mucous glands of the leopard frog (__Rana pipiens__) are described so that their role in water balance can be better understood. Mucus is acidic, due to its content of sulfate and carboxylic acids. The carbohydrate moiety contains perio
