“Most studies of invertebrate larval metamorphosis have been performed with species that are sedentary or sessile as adults.”

“Now she held their attention as they watched the metamorphosis from near death to vitality and renewed animation filling her essence.”

“He kicked the jack-of-all-trades route to the curb, got himself a band, and made a quick metamorphosis into a brash rocker.”

“After 2 to 3 months in the larval stage, the tadpoles metamorph between the end of June and beginning of August depending on the location.”

“The tadpoles metamorph during the following summer after 12 to 15 month in the larval stage.”

“After 2 to 5 months at the larval stage, the young metamorph between June and August.”

“She is a metamorphosist who can change gold to dross, joy to horror.”

“She essentially turns the movement into both minuet and gigue and metamorphs one to the other without any sense of break at all.”

“Fitness was assessed using burst swim speed for tadpoles and maximum jump distance for metamorphs.”

“We photographed emerging metamorphs to determine size at metamorphosis, and recorded their times to metamorphosis.”
