This organism was isolated from the luminous flesh of 

 a dead rabbit. It was cultivable in a synthetic medium 

 made as follows : Ordinary water, 100 ; asparagine, i ; 

 glycerin, i ; potassium phosphate, o.m ; sea salt, 3. After 

 some months in this medium the luminosity diminished. 

 Kxposed to the light for some days, at about ioC.,the 

 culture takes on a fine orange yellow color, becomes 

 opaque, and loses its luminosity except at the edges. 

 Transfers may be made from this'yellow growth readily, 

 but the resulting cultures are not luminous. In the dark, 

 however, such cultures return after some days tn their 

 orginal transparent color, and again become luminous.

Only the luminous sorts are able to act through glass. 

 The action of tiou luminous species is probably dm- "to 

 the evolution of volatile chemical substances." The lat- 

 ter exposures were long several days.

" Spectroscopically the light emitted by the photogenic 

 organisms examined by me is confined to a very small 

 portion of the visible spectrum ; never extending into 

 the ultra-violet or infra-red. Visually it only includes 

 the green and blue, and photographically it extends very 

 slightly further into the violet. The economic value of 

 such n light source is obvious, and it is n matter of great 

 practical importance to determine its method of produc- 

 tion." 

 The writer experimented with 13 species.
