Whole animals and pieces maintained at 21-23° C. High percentages (28-44) of heteromorphic forms also appeared. In general, these were similar to those found in the first series but with the addition of a 5th type which had regenerated two heads at each end of the piece (Fig. 3). At D level more than 50 per cent of these forms had 3 or 4 heads. DISCUSSION AND. CONCLUSIONS This work has shown that certain c

CONCLUSIONS This work has shown that certain concentrations of colchicine markedly in- hibit regeneration and regulation to normal body form in planarians. It has shown that the degree of inhibition was roughly proportional to the concentration.
