University of Bristol

Extract

This paper embodies various observations which were made from time to time while the author was a member of the staff of the Plymouth Laboratory. It also outlines certain generalisations based on the author’s previous published work and that of other recent workers in the field of comparative physiology of feeding and digestion.
