The hypophysis of Spelerpes For comparison the hypophysis was studied in three other tailed amphibia, with special attention given to the adult mor- phology of the gland. The forms chosen were Spelerpes bis- lineatus, Necturus maculosus, and Amphiuma means. The specimens of Spelerpes include a larva, a larva of the 'pre-metamorphic stage' (Wilder), and an adult. A dorsal view of a wax-plate reconstruction of the epithelial hy- pophysis from the younger larva is shown in figure 11 and from. 14 Fig. 14 Camer

A-B, C-D, and E-F, indicate planes of sections shown in figures 15, 16, and 17, respectively. X 15. the adult in figure 13. Figure 12 presents a sagittal section of the adult hypophysis. It may be seen that the pars intermedia is relatively large. The anterior lobe proper is small and is situated almost entirely caudal to the infundibulum. Cor- responding to the large size of the pars intermedia the neural lobe is also relatively large. The two components of the pars tuberalis maintain their attachment to the anterior lobe proper, even in the adult stage (fig. 13)..
