On the right is a normal catfish that has been darkened by adaptation to a black background. The fish in the center had been light-adapted to a white background and then been injected with 12 Fundulus pituitaries; one hour after the injection it was photographed in this dark condition. The animal on the left is a control light-adapted fish that had received cc. of Ringer's solution intraperi- toneally. Fig. 3. The frog on the right had been light-adapted and then injected with 8 Fundulus pituitaries, photographed 75 minutes after the injection. The animal on the left was the control that received an injection of Ringer's 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 Lillie, Frank Rattray, 1870-1947; Moore, Carl Richard, 1892-; Redfield, Alfred Clarence, 1890-; Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ); Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ).
