摘要：

Afferent projections to the pituitary pars intermedia were studied using the Dil tract-tracing technique in two amphibian species, the urodelan Triturus carnifex, and the anuran Rana esculenta. After Dil crystal application into the pituitary intermediate lobe, in both species cells were retrogradely labeled in the preoptic nucleus, in the supra- and retro-chiasmatic hypothalamus and in the brainstem (especially in the area indicated as locus coeruleus). The findings are discussed in relation to data on the neurochemical nature of the innervation of the pars intermedia in amphibians.
