Derivatives of Forebrain. At this stage of development the forebrain alone has distinguishing derivatives. Ventral to the notochord there develops a vesicular outpocketing of the floor of the forebrain known as the infundibulum. Its cells will contribute later to the formation of the pituitary gland, in conjunction with a cluster of pigmented ectodermal cells seen between the infundibulum and the roof of the pharynx. This cluster of cells is known as the epithelial hypophysis.
Reconstruction of the 5 mm. tadpole in sagittal section. It is believed that the more anterior infundibulum will form the pars nervosa or posterior pituitary gland. The more posterior hypophysis can be identified as contributing to the anterior pituitary gland (pars distalis, pars intermedia, and pars tuberalis of mammals).
