Note that for the three species shown in Figure 1, each has a different minimum threshold. Some studies were also made of D. ininutum which, as just mentioned, has a low maximum threshold (, does not develop with a rich food supply, prob- ably because excessive bacterial growth produces inhibitory substances). It was a surprise to discover that it had a high minimum threshold necessary for aggrega- tion. In other words it is a form which can only develop in a very restricted range of food densities. Other forms, such as D. purpurcum, are much less particular and I0u.
