Abstract
INDIVIDUALS of the striped variety of Dugesia tigrina collected in the summer of 1935 in the pond behind the Episcopal Church, Falmouth, Mass., have been maintained in the laboratory in finger bowls containing tap water and have been fed beef liver twice or three times a week. During their seven-year stay in the laboratory they have produced egg capsules annually.
