Pure cultures of Astasia sp., a colorless euglenoid flagellate, have been maintained for a number of years in organic media (Hall, '39). More recently, this form has been shown capable of continuous growth in media containing sodium acetate as the only organic material, and also in purely inorganic

โฆ Synopsis
FOUR FIGURES
Since tlie iniportance of hydrogen ion concentration to growth of protozoa is well known (see Hall, '41, and Richards, '41, for reviews), knowledge of the pH-growth relationship is desirable before attempting other physiological investigations. F o r this reason a number of experiments to determine the effect of p H on growth of Astusia Zongu, a colorless euglenoid flagellate, have been carried out during the past several years.
