Notes
Starting from a clone of Philodina roseola (Rotifera, Bdelloidea) six homogeneous animals have been reared. From them three different age cohorts have been studied in order to determine their life tables. Cohorts and parental life schedules are compared and discussed. A sort of correlation between offspring fecundity and life span and material rate of egg production could be established.
