See Table I for variable states except column e (to apertural lip, or to columella). See Figure 3 for sample sizes and means for snail locality. The remaining means from these many analyses are not presented in the interest of economy, but may be obtained from the authors on request. ' = 2 (as for Table I). ND = no data. snails that turned aperturally when the effluent sources were P. producta, L. mandtii, and B. glandula were not significantly different from expected. Thus, incorporating the bias introduced by starting orientation had no effect on the results. Differences between populations of snails Nucella lamellosa from Grappler Inlet, the Ross Islets, and lab-acclimatized snails from Grappler Inlet, all ex- hibited a statistically significant avoidance of C. productus effluent (Fig. 3, Table II). Those from the Ross Islets ex- hibited as strong a response as those from Grappler Inlet. The proportion of lab-acclimatized snails that avoided C. productus was larger than that of freshly collected snails but was less signific
