Molluscs. In some of the species of bivalve mollusc studied by Dan and Wada (1955), the acrosome reaction was elicited by the species egg water and/or by "contact" with glass surfaces. However, in all the species studied, the spermatozoa produced acrosome filaments when placed in the presence of unfertilized. Fig. 22. Head ends of spermatozoa of starfish. (After Dan, Biol.
