Abstract
SINCE the appearance in 1905 of the second part of Oltmann's work on the morphology and biology of the algae, so large a number of memoirs on the nutrition of the alga? have appeared, that Dr. Richter has thought it worth while to collect them into a volume for the International Review of Hydro-biology and Hydrography. The references are grouped under three headings—(1) the significance of chemical elements and certain chemical compounds in the physiology of nutrition; (2) the influence of various chemical and physical factors of the nutrient substratum on the form and development of the algas; and (3) an appendix on the influence of tem perature and light on the algas with reference to their culture.
