Summary

1. The adrenal gland of Xenopus is essentially similar in distribution and structure to the adrenal of Urodeles.

2. In addition, adrenal tissue occurs in the walls of the renal veins, inferior vena cava, aorta and renal arteries, a condition similar to that found in some Cyclostomes and Fishes.

We wish to thank Mr B. McManus for his assistance in the preparation of sections.
