Abstract
THE rate of hatching of larvæ from cysts of the potato root eelworm H. rostochiensis Woll. during in vitro hatching tests has been found by many workers to show seasonal fluctuations, a high level of larval emergence during the summer months declining to a negligible hatch during the winter.
