Abstract
1. 1. In vivo sodium and chloride net flexus through the skin of Leptodactylus ocellatus were measured in a NaCl solution of 870 μequiv./1. The frogs were previously preadapted in different salt solutions (Na 2SO 4, choline chloride, NH 4Cl and NaCl) or in distilled water with aim of increasing the net flexus and differentially to stimulate the Na + and Cl − net flexus. 2. 2. The conclusion is reached that in our experimental conditions the chloride and sodium fluxes are partially independent, Cl − being exchanged against an endogenous anion. The physiological significance of this phenomenon is briefly discussed.
