bivalves discussed in this article ; to Mr. Herbert Hidu, who contributed
a p e a t deal of information on utilization of dried algae a larval food ;
to Miss Phyllis B. Smith, who assisted us in a number of the earlier
experiments ; and to our microbiologists, Dr. Ravenna Ukeles and
Dr. Robert R. Guillard, who provided the phytoplankton for our
feeding exporirnents. Wo aru grctteful to Dr. F. 8. Rusmll and Dr.
Mary Parke of Plymouth Laboratory, England, for sending us inocula
of algae, several of which were extensively used in our studies.
We also want to acknowledge the technical help of our Laboratory
Mechanic, Mr. Joseph F. Lucash, whose ingenuity in designing and
building various apparatus for our experiments made possible the
successful completion of many of our physiological studies. Miss
Rita S. Riccio and Mrs. Florence S. Munz were extremely helpful in
preparing and editing this manuscript, while to Messrs. Manton Botsford
and Charles Nomejko we are indebted for preparation of the photographs and other illustrations.
