## Abstract The pattern of connectivity between motoneurons of the lumbar lateral motor column (LMC) and hindlimb regions was examined in bullfrog tadpoles (__Rana catesbeiana__) over the course of larval development. The purpose of this study was to determine if a period of relatively imprecise co

## Abstract We tested the hypothesis that respiratory development would be retarded in tadpoles reared in aquaria in which a barrier prevented access to the airβwater interface. To test this hypothesis, we examined swimming behavior and respiration in intact tadpoles and gill and lung respiratory a
## Abstract Bullfrog tadpoles subjected to the daily disturbance of water replacement demonstrated differences in the rates of growth and metamorphosis and in fatbody weights which depended on the time of day when water replacement occurred. Early daily disturbances stimulated larval growth whereas
We describe a novel mutualism between bullfrog tadpoles (Rana catesbeiana) and a tadpole-specific gastrointestinal nematode (Gyrinicola batrachiensis). Groups of tadpoles were inoculated with viable or nonviable nematode eggs, and development, morphology, and gut fermentation activity were compared
