Abstract
THE mechanics of flagellar movements and the swimming of aquatic micro-organisms form a subject of great complexity, towards an understanding of which A. G. Lowndes (Proc. Zool. Soc, 114 (111), 325; 1944) makes a critical contribution in respect of Monas stigmatica Pringsheim, Peranema tricophorum (Ehrbg.) Stein. and Volvox sp., and at the same time effectively refutes several statements about this process that have made their appearance in standard text-books of biology.
