RANGED FROM 189-571 MEQ Cl \& TOTAL OSMOTIC CONTENT FROM 396-1135 MOSMOL. LOWER CONC. WERE HYPERIONIC \& HYPEROSMOTIC TO SURROUNDING H2O, BUT HIGHER CONC WERE ISOIONIC \& ISOSMOTIC. 3. WORMS KEPT UP TO 64 HRS. IN LAB \& ARTIF CH2O FROM 40-100\% STANDARD CH2O WERE UNIFORMLY ISO(IONIC/OSMOTIC) AT EQUIL. WEIGHT STAILIZED AT ABOUT THE SAME TIME AS DID IONIC \& OSMOTIC CONTENT OF COEL. FLUID WITHOUT EVID. OF BEING REGULATED. 4. UNDER NATURAL CONDITIONS, MUD IN THE WORMS{\textquoteright} GUTS AND AROUND THEM MAY ACT AS A BUFFER, THEREBY ALLOWING THE ANIMALS TO MAINTAIN AN IONIC AND OSMOTIC STATE DIFFERING FROM THAT OF THEIR ENVIR. *GOOD REVIEW IN OGLESBY 1968/9* BODY VOLUME MAY BE CONTROLLED UNDER LOW STRESS CONDITIONS...ABSENCE OF OSOREGULATORY ABILITY... POSSIBLE EXCEPTION OF WHAT OGLESBY CALLS P.LURCO... ATYPICAL HABITAT...},
