  1. A precursor cell for chromaffin cells.
    — Possibly more than one type of chromoblast precursor is present in the adrenal primordium[.] TH levels are lower in chromoblasts that have migrated into the adrenal primordium and that are destined to become future neurones or NA cells than in future A cells[.] [figure legend]
  2. A hypothesized cell, arising from the neural crest, that serves as a common progenitor cell for pigment cells, especially in some fishes and amphibians.
    — The morphological changes are accompanied by the establishment of a well-differentiated dorso-ventral pigmentation pattern. In the ocular side, stem chromoblasts differentiate into adult chromatophores (mainly melanophores, xanthophores and iridophores) and larval chromatophores progressively disappear.
