J. A. Moore investigated the inheritance of spotting patterns in leopard irogs (J. A. Moore. 1943. Journal of Heredity 34:3-7). The pipiens phenotype had the normal spots that give leopard frogs their name. In contrast, the burnsi phenotype lacked spots on its back. Moore carried out the following crosses, producing the progeny indicated. Parent phenotypes burnsi x burnsi burnsi x pipiens burnsi x pipiens Progeny phenotypes 39 burnsi, 6 pipiens 23 burnsi, 33 pipiens 196 burnsi, 210 pipiens
