Portions of Fundulus embryonic shields, usually posterior or anterior halves, were partially dissociated into cell clumps and separate cells by exposure to salt solution lacking magnesium and calcium ions; the dissociates were reaggregated in salt solution containing these ions, then immediately grafted to extraembryonic regions of host gastrulae. Technical difficulties prevented complete dissociation of the shield portions and complete retrieval of the dissociates, but a number of hosts bearing secondary complexes differentiated i n association with the grafts developed successfully to late stages.Complexes associated with grafts derived from posterior shield portions frequently formed tails, and differentiated, with few exceptions, the same range of structures described earlier as having differentiated when either unfragmented or mechanically minced shield portions were grafted. In the parts of the new graft complexes remaining attached to the yolksac epithelium, the secondary structures formed were often i n topographic disarray, but in the free tails that grew out from these complexes, the axial structures frequently attained normal topographic relationships.Complexes associated with grafts derived from anterior shield portions frequently formed, among other structures, highly differentiated eyes, often with normal retinal stratification, sometimes accompanied by lens, cornea, iris, or optic nerve.The high degree of organization of tails developing i n association with grafts of posterior origin, and of eyes i n association with grafts of anterior origin, is possibly explicable not by cellular self-sorting and self-assembly, but rather by embryonic field phenomena.The following report is based on the study of a number of Fundulus heteroclitus embryos in experiments the original aim of which was to dissociate into separate cells portions of Fundulus gastrulae, then immediately to reaggregate the dissociates and to graft the reaggregates to the extraembryonic membrane of host gastrulae the same age as the donors. The experiments extend the results of earlier series of studies on Fundulus in which quarters of the shield were grafted intact (Oppenheimer, '59a) and in which thirds of the shield were grafted after being mechanically minced with knives into 9 or 12 fragments and scrambled before being grafted (Oppenheimer, '59b). The results of the 1959 experiments can be construed as controls J. EXP. ZOOL., for the new experimental results presented here. Grafts to the Fundulus extraembryonic membrane attain a degree of differentiation far in advance of that achieved by explants of vertebrate embryos in uitro.The new experiments can be considered, also, as extensions of experiments of others. Reaggregation of dissociated cells of young embryos has been studied more often in uitro than in transplantation experiments. Nonetheless, some grafts of reaggregated dissociated embry-
