| Title | Phototaktische Reaktion von Asplanchna priodonta bei monochromatischem Reizlicht Phototactic Reactions of Asplanchna priodonta to Monochromatic Light  | ||
| Abstract | 1. The spectral sensitivity curve of the positive phototactic reaction of the rotifer Asplanchna priodon ta has a triple peak. The maxima lie at 363 nm, 453 nm and 552 nm. 2. In the shortest wavelength tested and in the area of 453 to 594 nm was the precision of the phototactic orientation found to be high. In between lies a minimum at 395 nm, above 594 nm occurs a rapid decrease in phototactic orientation. 3. No wavelength specific differences in the way of orientation were found when using dif ferent monochromatic test light stimuli. This leads the same mixture of photopigments. | ||
