Extract

The following paper has been prepared in the hope that it will be of assistance to anyone desirous of carrying out experiments on Heredity with Gammarus chevreuxi. This Amphipod has been the subject of study at the Plymouth Laboratory since 1912, and the following notes are chiefly concerned with rearing and breeding it under Laboratory conditions.

Details of the work will be found in the papers mentioned in the bibliography on page 54.
