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.io ; sea salt, 3. After 

 some months iu this medium the Unniuosity diminished. 

 K-^posed to the light for some days, at about jo^ C.the 

 culture takes on a fine orange yelh.w 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 dart, 

 however, such cultures return after some days to their 

 orgiu.'il transparent color, and ;ig;iin become luminous.

" 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 a light source is obvious, and it is a matter of great 

 practical importance to determine its method of produc- 

 tion." 



The writer experimented with 13 species.
