With the gallocyanine technique (Wittkowski, Bock and Franken, 1970) Gomori-positive substances of the infundibulum can be stained for light- and electron-microscopic examination. In various mammalian species, the size of Gomori-positive elementary granules in the outer layer is markedly different from that in the inner layer of the infundibulum. In general, the granules of the outer layer have less then half the diameter of those of the inner layer. In birds and fish, however, only small differences were found between the granules of both layers. The significance of the results is discussed.
