title: Light- and scanning electron microscopical studies of the hypothalamo-adenohypophysial portal vessels of the toad Bufo bufo (L.).
abstract: The vascularization of the hypothalamo-adenohypophysial region of the toad Bufo bufo (L.) (Amphibia, Anura) was studied by means of light- and scanning electron microscopy. Special attention was given to the portal vascular system of the median eminence and the pars distalis. Course and arrangement of these vessels are described.
