All sections show no lines of arrested growth in bones. MC=marrow cavity. Scale bar=50 jam. femoral bones and three finger bones were removed from the tadpoles and metamorphs, respectively, and were decalcified in 5% nitric acid for 120 min. They were washed in run- ning water for one night before and after this process. Then the bones were sectioned on a freezing microtome and stained with hematox- ylin (Mayer's acid hemalum) for 30 min. We selected sections which included the diaphysis region, and mounted them in glycerin for micro- scopic Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Nihon Hachu Ryoseirui Gakkai.
