## Abstract The enzyme, xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH), has been examined in __Ambystoma tigrinum nebulosum__ with respect to its role in pigmentation. It now seems probable that the melanoid gene (__m__) either codes directly for XDH or is somehow intimately connected with the normal function of thi

## Abstract In the tiger salamnder the distribution of optic fibers, as revealed by the FinkβHeimer method, is compared with the localization of acetylcholinesterase, as revealed by histochemical methods. AChE activity coincides with optic nerve axons in the optic fiber layer of the retina, in the
Developmental relationships among characters are expected to bias patterns of morphological variation at the population level. Studies of character development thus can provide insights into processes of adaptation and the evolutionary diversification of morphologies. Here I use experimental manipul
