Duttaphrynus himalayanus is an atypical amphibian species, adapted to high altitude and cold climatic conditions of Eastern Himalaya. The peripheral blood leucocytes from D. himalayanus were studied by transmission electron microscopy. The ultra structure and sub cellular organizational architecture of the leukocytes appears to be very similar to mammalian leukocyte and accordingly have been characterized into five different types.
