Descriptive data are provided for ontogeny of bone to metamorphosis in the myobatrachine species Uperoleia trachyderma; in pre- and postmetamorphic specimens of U. lithomoda, Crinia signifera, and Pseudophryne bibroni; and in postmetamorphic specimens of U. laevigata. Data derived from postmetamorphic U. laevigata indicate that dermal and endochondral elements ossify independently of each other in Uperoleia. Crinia signifera does not show the same degree of independence of ossification of dermal and endochondral elements as Uperoleia, whereas dermal and endochondral elements are not independent in P. bibroni. Ten (or possibly eleven) features are identified as being influenced by heterochrony within Uperoleia, confirming that the genus represents a highly pedomorphic lineage, four elements are influenced by heterochrony in Crinia, but only two in Pseudophryne.
本文提供了关于肌蟾科物种糙皮雨滨蛙从骨骼发育到变态过程的描述性数据；还包括光滑雨滨蛙、铃蟾、红背铃蟾变态前和变态后的样本数据，以及光滑雨滨蛙变态后的样本数据。来自光滑雨滨蛙变态后样本的数据表明，在雨滨蛙属中，真皮和软骨内骨化元素相互独立进行骨化。铃蟾的真皮和软骨内骨化元素不像雨滨蛙那样具有相同程度的骨化独立性，而红背铃蟾的真皮和软骨内骨化元素则不是独立的。在雨滨蛙属中，有十个（或可能十一个）特征被确定受到发育异时性的影响，这证实该属代表了一个高度幼态延续的谱系；在铃蟾中有四个元素受到发育异时性影响，而在红背铃蟾中只有两个。
