In the dark, growth rates of Euglena gracilis were independent of culture pH between the limits of three to eight. Visible light of moderate intensity inhibited growth rates, with the degree of inhibition being markedly pH dependent. The most severe inhibition was observed at pH 4 to 5, with little or no inhibition at pH 3 or above pH 6.8 at the light intensity used (400 foot‐candles).
