[Evolutionary transformations of ontogenesis in anuran amphibians]
Abstract
A review of the recent published data on ontogenesis of direct developing and marsupial frogs. The development of these representatives of anuran amphibians seems to be evolutionary advanced and considerably differs from the development of species traditionally used in amphibian embryology.
