Note: Actions or processes resulting in the change of form in an animal or its parts, during post-embryonic development. The term is used for the process of transformation from an immature form to a different adult form that many insects and other invertebrates, and some vertebrates (e.g., frogs), undergo in the course of maturing. |

Additional Notes: |

Dutch ..... Acties of processen als gevolg van de verandering van de vorm van een dier of delen ervan tijdens postembryonale ontwikkeling. De term wordt gebruikt voor het transformatieproces van een onrijpe vorm naar een andere, volwassen vorm, een proces dat veel insecten en andere ongewervelde dieren tijdens het volwassen worden ondergaan, en ook sommige gewervelde dieren (bijvoorbeeld kikkers).
