The Myzothnllophyta, particularly those organisms within the family, Dictyosteliacene, represent remarkable biological material for the study of celluIar differentiation. The life cycles of these forms are now well known, primarily due to the researches of Olive ( '(la), Raper ( '41), and Bonner ( '47).

The cellular slime molds arise by a n aggregation of amocbac, arid the resulting cell mass often will wander some distance over tlie surface of the substratum before rising into the a i r to fruit.

## Abstract Two different methods for the localization of Con A indicate that this lectin is bound to the surface of __Dictyostelium discoideum__ amoebae. Redistribution of the Con A receptors occurs both on cells in suspension and cells moving on an agar surface. Internalization of the Con A does
