Notes
The occurrence of conjugation in the flagellate, Polytomella agilis Aragao, as first reported in 1910, is confirmed. The gametes made contact with each other in a variety of positions. Our observations differ in minor ways from those reported for P. agilis and are in considerable disagreement with others published on sexual reproduction in Polytomella caeca.
