Notes
This paper is the first of a series on the life-history and biology of some of the tubificid worms found in Britain. It summarizes the known distribution of Tubifex costatus (Claparede), its habitat preferences and breeding behaviour as recorded in the literature, and presents quantitative data on the life-cycle in one locality in Lancashire.
