Abstract
A simple method for the experimental determination of minimal concentrations of attractants detected by the nematodePanagrellus redivivus is described. The lowest concentrations of methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, and amyl acetate as well as the minimal differences in concentrations of these attractants detectable byPanagrellus redivivus are presented.
