Nature, 1977
HARKNESS'S demonstration1 that chameleons rely primarily upon accommodative cues to judge distance encouraged me to examine the mechanisms of depth vision in an amphibian (Bufo marius). Unlike chameleons which have highly mobile eyes, toads make neither convergent nor fixating eye movements, so that, except for stabilising reflexes, their eyes are ...

Simbolismo del rospo nella tradizione culturale europea. Passando in rassegna repertori classici e fonti rare l'Autore mostra come nel tempo il rospo si sia fortemente collegato alle metafore animali nella definizione della interiorità anatomica femminile. Pertanto esso è divenuto un animale centrale nella zoologia simbolica della stregoneria storica

Urban Affairs Quarterly, 1990
This article is an exploratory study of Temporarily Obsolete Abandoned Derelict Sites (TOADS)-that is, deserted industrial sites and housing projects. Interviews with city planning departments and/or health departments in 14 of the 15 largest cities in the United States led to an analysis of how city governments experience and respond to TOADS.

Archives of Dermatology, 1986
Dermatologists when telling young patients that toads may have caused their warts. The word "toad" itself is derived from the old English wordtadige, which is of unknown origin, without cognates in other languages, and has obvious negative connotations when applied to people.

Electroencephalographic studies in toads
Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology, 1966Abstract During two consecutive years, experiments were done at monthly intervals on the EEG pattern of acute, curarized and non-anesthetized, or freely moving toads ( Bufo arenarum Hensel), bearing chronically implanted electrodes. Animals were kept during several weeks under fixed environmental conditions (22°C temperature, humidity at saturation ...

Glycogen in the neurohypophysis of toads
Zeitschrift f�r Zellforschung und Mikroskopische Anatomie, 1966Studies with the electron microscope revealed the presence of glycogen granules in the neurohypophysis of toads (Bufo arenarum Hensel). The glycogen appeared as scattered particles or as clusters formed by these particles within the nerve fibers. The scattered granules were intermingled with the neurosecretory granules and with the microvesicles ...

The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2003
In Bufo arenarum, androgen biosynthesis occurs through a complete 5-ene pathway, including 5-androstane-3beta,17beta-diol as the immediate precursor of testosterone. Besides, steroidogenesis changes during the breeding period, turning from androgens to C(21)-steroids such as 5alpha-pregnan-3alpha,20alpha-diol, 3alpha-hydroxy-5alpha-pregnan-20-one and ...

Abstract In general, the excellent frog test described by Allison 6 and Hodgson 1,2 loses its accuracy during the summer season. The toad test described above has the marked advantage of being accurate throughout the year including during the summer season when its percentage of error is reduced markedly. The technique of the toad test is not more

Vestibulospinal Projection in the Toad
1972Publisher Summary The course and distribution of fibers originating from the nuclei of termination of the VIII cranial nerve in the toad have been studied by means of silver impregnation techniques. In addition to lesions of the nuclei of termination of the VIII nerve, a complete hemisection of the spinal cord was made and the position of all ...
