The literature on regeneration in the central nervous system of vertebrates has been reviewed exhaustively by Windle (1955, 1956). Adult fish and urodeles reestablish physiological and anatomical continuity of the spinal cord after it has been completely transected while adult anurans (Piatt & Piatt, 1958) and mammals on the whole do not. In all groups of vertebrates regeneration is more successful in the period of early embryonic development, and becomes less so as development proceeds. Experiments designed to investigate the factors responsible for this change demand an animal in which the difference in the regenerative capacity of embryonic and adult form is marked, and all stages of development are easily accessible for operative procedures. These criteria are satisfied by Anura. For this reason regeneration in the anuran central nervous system merits further investigation. After spinal cord transection in urodele larvae, Piatt (1955) found that the Mauthner axons did not regenerate although other axons around them did.
