Extract

Aquatic biologists have long been familiar with the beautiful and interesting larvae of Chaoborus which are found in most of our lakes. Their peculiar habit of migrating daily krom the bottom of the lake to the surface and back again is well known. The data reported here are concerned not so much with this interesting habit but rather with the general ecology of the species.
