Abstract

This work studies the neural development of the dendrobatid frog Colostethus machalilla that is endemic to the Ecuadorian coast. It has a terrestrial way of life and it deposits its eggs directly on the ground. Immunostaining in whole embryos was done to study the pattern ofneural molecular markers. The neural development of C. machalilla is retarded in comparlson with the aquatic frog Xenopus laevis.
