Abstract
Using the Pfeffer capillary tube method of determining chemotaxy, it was found that certain acids cause collection of Fucus spermatozoids. It is suggested that this may be explained as due to toxicity and not chemotaxy. Fucus spermatozoids are negatively phototactic. Low temperature is favorable to the activity of Fucus spermatozoids.Keywords
