Summary The structure of the terminal neuromuscular junctions found close to the insertions of myotomal muscle fibres in teleost fish and amphibia is described, and it is concluded that in both groups, the pattern of innervation is essentially similar. Different degrees of complexity are described, both in the terminal nerve branches, and in the sub-junctional apparatus. It is suggested that the terminal pattern of innervation is an adaptation to the requirements of rapid swimming.
