Anolis sagrei stages 4-19 Brain

 

Stage 5

Developing cephalic bulges are distinct enough to distinguish into the cerebrum, optic tectum, and hindbrain.

Stage 6

The dorsal bulge that makes up the optic tectum is more exaggerated than in previous stage.

Stage 7

The cerebellum begins to form a more distinctive bulge caudo-ventrally.

Stage 8

Continued growth of the cerebrum and cerebellum.

Stage 9

The beginning of the olfactory bulb starts forming at the dorso-frontal position. Continued growth of the cerebrum and cerebellum.

Stage 10

Olfactory bulb has grown. The areas around the cerebrum and optic tectum are noticeably larger. Cerebellum and hindbrain have grown.

Stage 11

Regions of the brain, especially around the cerebellum and optic tectum, have increased in size compared to previous stage.

Stage 12

Cerebellum and optic tectum have increased in size again compared to previous stage.

Stage 13

Cerebellum and optic tectum are less distinct.

Stage 14

Optic tectum and cerebellum are less distinct.

Stage 15

Olfactory bulb has frown longer than in previous stage. Hindbrain has increased in size. Optic tectum and cerebellum are less distinct.

Stage 16

Optic tectum and cerebellum are less distinct.

Stage 17

No change from previous stage.

Stage 18

No change from previous stage.

 

Stage 19

No change from previous stage.
