This appears contrary to what Donaldson has found in the case of the albino rat. There he found a decrease of water of 10 per cent between birth and maturity. I was able to secure seventeen specimens of young Squalus acanthias, the spiny dog-fish. These fish, as may be seen in table 8, are all under one year of age. TABLE 8 Shotving sex, length, weight, brain weight and percentage of water in the brain of young Squalus acanthias.
