Abstract
Microscolex phosphoreus is characterized by an external luminescence (except the steady death glow) which begins upon stimulation. All the properties of its light seem to show that this species has a luminescence of its own. The luminous material is represented by small granules situated in the protoplasm of the cells, which take their origin from the body cavity. The luminescence begins probably after the granules are liberated from the cells.
