SUMMARY The standard ‘Stereoscan’ specimen stub has been modified to permit palynological acid‐maceration techniques to be performed under aseptic conditions. It is hoped that this adaptation will also be of use where contaminant‐free pure culture preparations are required, where delicate specimens are being treated, or where it is desirable to examine the precipitated products of chemical reactions.
