The results show that with one exception the attachment of gametes of all the species represented are highly self-specific. The spermatozoa of each species attach only to their own eggs. In the one exceptional case Horn-ams spermatozoa attach to the eggs of three other species, Callinectes, Cancer and Ovalipes. These attachments were less firm than normal and the acrosome often was oriented away from the egg surface. Hoinants eggs failed to cross-attach to t
