The cultures contained the varying numbers of individuals indicated by the numerals. Upon the 42d and 58th days respectively, 1 and 4 individuals were isolated from culture e, and upon the 64th day 1 individual was isolated from culture d, where- upon rapid growth was resumed by the isolated ones.

The sacks were held spread out by frames made of glass rods. Water was renewed in each beaker at rates of 300 to 600 cc. per minute, day and night, for several Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ); Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ).
