..., mean lymph flow from one of the paired posterior lymph hearts was 25.9±4.9 ml kg −1 h −1 , stroke volume was 8.9±1.4 μ l kg −1 and lymph heart rate was 47.5±3.7 beats min −1 . We estimate that, together, the paired posterior lymph hearts are capable of generating flows that are approximately one...

... hydrated conditions, decreased to 31.8±4.6beats min −1 after 18h of dehydration. Lymph flow decreased almost to zero during dehydration from a hydrated rate of 1.11±0.04mlh −1 100g −1 . This is the first study to measure directly and to correlate these variables in an amphibian and to show specifically...
