Extract

Procerodes ulvœ has been found living in streams with calcium content as low as 5 mgm. per litre. Its upper limit does not appear to be affected by the calcium content of the water. The animals at the upper limit are liable to about 5 days' exposure to fresh water if calm weather coincides with Neap Tides. Animals living in water of 8–12 mgm. Ca per litre have been found alive at the end of such a period.
