The light source was a headlight lamp No. 1493. It was set with a transformer so that it received amps, and volts. The intensity of the light was checked hefore and after an experiment with a photocell and a galvanometer. After the pseudoplasmodia had fruited, the plastic boxes were placed upon their sides under a dissecting microscope and camera lucida drawings were made of the sorocarps. The angles were determined by drawing a line from the base through the upper end of the stalk at the point where it enters the sorus (Fig. 1). The vertical position was considered 0°, and any deviation towards light was given a positive angle value, while orientation away from the light was given a negative value.
