Abstract
INTRODUCTIONThis protocol is used to visualize the cartilaginous elements of the developing skeleton using alcian blue. It has been used with excellent results on the fruit bat Carollia perspicillata, as well as several other bat species at stages from CS 14 through CS 22.

It is therefore advisable to document results immediately.
