SYNOPSIS. A simplified technic is presented for determining clonal stability patterns for numbers of ciliary rows in Tetrahymena. The technic involves plotting the variance of meridian number against the mean number of meridians. By this procedure strains of different syngens, difficult to discriminate on other grounds, may sometimes be shown to be distinctive.
