Laboratory experiments are used to generate data that facilitate investigation of pricing behavior in forward and spot markets. Results suggest a tendency for prices in a spot market to converge to levels higher than those in a forward market. The difference in these market environments is the supply schedule. Buyers in a spot market are aware that supply is inelastic and become relatively aggressive bidders. Forward markets have a relatively elastic supply schedule and buyers fare better. This may motivate firms to promote forward markets and/or vertically integrate in the procurement of inputs.

Laboratory experimental methods are used to investigate the impacts of supply and/or demand risks on prices, quantities traded, and earnings within forward and spot market institutions. Random demand and/or supply shifts can be as much as 25 percent of the expected equilibrium outcome. Nevertheless, results suggest that the spot or forward trading institution itself has a greater influence on market outcomes than the presence of risk within the trading institution. Sellers tend to have relatively higher earnings in a spot market than buyers, regardless of the risk. Total surplus, however, generally is greater in a forward market.

Interventional cardiology for paediatric and congenital cardiac disease is a relatively young and rapidly evolving field. As the profession begins to establish multi-institutional databases, a universal system of nomenclature is necessary for the field of interventional cardiology for paediatric and congenital cardiac disease. The purpose of this paper is to present the results of the efforts of The International Society for Nomenclature of Paediatric and Congenital Heart Disease to establish a system of nomenclature for cardiovascular catheterisation for congenital and paediatric cardiac disease, focusing both on procedural nomenclature and on the nomenclature of complications associated with interventional cardiology. This system of nomenclature for cardiovascular catheterisation for congenital and paediatric cardiac disease is a component of The International Paediatric and Congenital Cardiac Code. This manuscript is the first part of a two-part series. Part 1 will cover the procedural nomenclature associated with interventional cardiology as treatment for paediatric and congenital cardiac disease. This procedural nomenclature of The International Paediatric and Congenital Cardiac Code will be used in the IMPACT Registry™ (IMproving Pediatric and Adult Congenital Treatment) of the National Cardiovascular Data Registry® of The American College of Cardiology. Part 2 will cover the nomenclature of complications associated with interventional cardiology as treatment for paediatric and congenital cardiac disease.

The heart-body contains haematins derived from by-products of haem synthesis. It also contains a non-haem iron protein and a flavin. Study of the relative amounts of these substances in worms of different ages and at different seasons suggests that the flavin plays some part in the metabolic activity of the organ and that the haematins accumulate throughout life. No evidence was found for the heart-body participating in any excretory activity or in haemoglobin breakdown.

An account is given of the reproduction and development of the larva of N. diversicolor O. F. Miiller.
In any one population the number of males was found not to exceed 10 %.
The species is dioecious. Both sexes become green at maturity, but may be distinguished externally.
Ripe oocytes, which vary between 200 and 250μ in diameter mature in a loose coelomic parenchyma, and are released by rupture of the body wall after its partial histolysis. Sperm is released through the nephridia, or possibly by rupture of the body wall as well. In the male histolysis occurs, but the coelomic parenchyma is transitory. Sperm matures in the form of coelomic sperm plates.

The variable colour of Nereis diversicolor is due to variations in the proportion of green, orange and brown pigments. The orange and brown pigments are mainly carotenoids; the green colour is due to biliverdin.
Phaeophorbide-a and coproporphyrin III also occur, but both these pigments may be restricted to the gut wall; biliverdin occurs both in the wall of the gut, and in the epidermis and coelomic cells.
The biliverdin is formed by the breakdown of the haemoglobin of the blood.
Haemoglobin-breakdown takes place in the epidermis on the dorsal side of the body, in the epithelial tissue surrounding the proboscis and in the pygidium. Granules of biliverdin are probably removed by the coelomic cells and conveyed to the gut into which they are excreted.
In ripe males, and in females during and after spawning, phagocytosis of the tissues is accompanied by an increased haemoglobin-breakdown with a corresponding accumulation of biliverdin in the body. The green appearance is due not only to an increased amount of biliverdin, but also to a complete extraction of carotenoids from the body-wall.

The pigments of the polychaete Sabella penicillus L. were reinvestigated. In addition to zeaxanthin and traces of lutein, a series of carotenoids which may represent steps in the formation of canthaxanthin have been found. These are β-carotene, isocryptoxanthin, echinenone, 4-hydroxy-4′-keto β-carotene and canthaxanthin. No astaxanthin was found. In two other sabellids, Myxicola infundibulum (Renier) and Megalomma vesiculosum (Montagu), astaxanthin was confirmed as the major pigment and the presence of echinenone was established. Attention was drawn to the similarity of the pigments of Sabella penicillus with those of other invertebrates and it has been suggested that in invertebrates a common pathway for the formation of canthaxanthin may exist.

Suspensions of heart-body tissue and of coelomocytes in solutions of porphobilinogen produced uroporphyrin. This affords additional evidence for the haematopoietic function of the heart-body, and for the view that the free porphyrins found there and in the haemoglobin-containing coelomocytes are formed by these tissues' own activity in haem synthesis.

The colour of the chromoplasts in the Chrysophyceae varies from a greenish yellow to a golden brown. Klebs (1892) described this colour as being due to a special pigment which he called ‘chrysochrom’. Gaidukov (1900) made an acetone extract of a dense bloom of Chromulina rosanoffii (Woronin, 1880) Biitschli filtered from the tanks in the cold glasshouses of the Botanic Gardens in St Petersburg. He found a water soluble pigment which he called ‘phycochrysin’ together with ‘chrysochlorophyll’ and ‘chrysoxanthophyll’. Most authors have since questioned the existence of special pigments in the Chrysophyceae (Fritsch, 1937; Smith, 1938). Carter, Heilbron & Lythgoe (1939) analysed extracts of an incrustation of Apistonema carteri, Thallochrysis litoralis and Gleochrysis maritima (identified by F. E. Fritsch) found on the chalk cliffs at Folkestone, and identified β-carotene, fucoxanthin and lutein, using calcium carbonate as adsorbent in their analysis. Heilbron (1942) later drew attention to the fact that these pigments are present in the Bacillariophyceae but not in the Xanthophyceae, throwing doubt on Pascher's view of the close relationship of all three groups. We now know that it is not lutein but diadinoxanthin that is present in the Bacillariophyceae (Strain, Manning & Hardin, 1944). Seybold, Egle & Hülsbruch (1941) then showed that the chlorophyll present in Hydrurus foetidus and Chromulina rosanoffii was chlorophyll a, apparently without other chlorophylls. Seybold (1941) has commented further on the singular occurrence. and implications of chlorophyll a alone, and this has been recently discussed by Allen (1958). In recent years our knowledge of the pigments of the algae has been greatly advanced by Strain and his colleagues (Strain, 1958) but, while the pigments of the Xanthophyceae and Bacillariophyceae have been examined with the improved techniques now available(Pace, 1941; Strain, Manning & Hardin, 1943, 1944; Strain, 1958), those of the Chrysophyceae have not.
Notes on the reproduction and early development of the cirratulid Tharyx marioni (St Joseph)

The larval development of the Cirratulidae is not well known, although an account of the development of Raphidrilus nemasoma Mont, was published by Sokolow in 1911 (under the name of Ctenodrilus branchiata), and of Audouinia tentaculata (Montagu) by Wilson in 1936. Apart from these two publications, only scattered observations may be found in the literature, and these are listed by Wilson (1936). Unfortunately, attempts to rear the larvae of Tharyx marioni (St Joseph) beyond the hatching stage have failed, and as it seems unlikely that further data may be gathered for some time, such results as have been obtained are presented here.
The main points of interest in the development and reproductive habits of T. marioni are: (i) the adults are atoquous; (ii) the eggs are comparatively large and yolky, and unlike Audouinia tentaculata, the pelagic stage is omitted; and (iii the larva on hatching is achaetous, as in other cirratulid larvae.

Owenia may feed either by ciliary means or by swallowing sand and detritus. The gut consists of three main parts, a fore-gut or stomach which is secretory, a non-secretory mid-gut region which is absorptive, and a hind-gut which is non-secretory, non-absorptive and serves to elaborate and store the faecal pellets. The mid-gut contains coproporphyrin III and also phaeophorbide-6, to which the green colour is due. The green pigment in the epidermis is also phaeophorbide-ft, but phaeophorbide-a is apparently absent from the body.

The pigments in the crowns of a number of sabellids and serpulids have been examined. The main pigments of sabellid crowns are ommochromes, but these pigments have not been found in serpulids. Both sabellids and serpulids also possess astaxanthin, and in Serpula, Protula and the sabellid Chone infundibuliformis it is to this pigment or an ester that the colour of the crown is due. The main carotenoids have been identified and the presence of a possible intermediate ketocarotenoid in amounts varying from one species to another suggests that the astaxanthin or astaxanthin ester is synthesized by the worms from carotene derived from the food. Pomatoceros has pink and blue pigments, and Galeolaria a similar grey-blue pigment which could not be identified with any known class of pigment. Neither these nor ommochromes have previously been found in annelids.

Determinations of the concentration of fat and glycogen in the body wall, in different parts of the gut and in the coelomic cells are described in Amphitrite and Arenicola. It is suggested that the trephocyte system constitutes a store of fat and glycogen derived from a primary store in the absorptive parts of the gut itself. In Arenicola and Nereis surplus fat is removed from the gut itself through the blood or directly by amoebocytes; the fat deposited in the epidermis and the glycogen in the peritoneum. In these worms the coelomic trephocytes are solely concerned with the maturation of the gametes. No relationship can be established between these cells and the chloragocytes. In Amphitrite and Terebella fat is stored also in the coelomic trephocytes which may derive their contents directly from the gut or from the body wall. Glycogen is stored in the trephocytes in Amphitrite, and in Arenicola in the peritoneum. Thus while large amounts of fat and glycogen are found in the trephocytes in Amphitrite, the total amount present in the body is no more than in Arenicola which lacks a well-developed trephocyte system, and in this species a larger proportion of fat and glycogen is found in the body wall.

Simple methods for recording the water currents, which many polychaetes drive through their tubes, are described. The circulation may be either open (the worm having access to large amounts of well-aerated sea water) or closed (in which case the worm can circulate a small volume only, and there is no oxygenacion or removal of excretory products).
When on open circulation, both Chaetopterus variopedatus and Nereis diversicolor often trace quite regularly cyclical patterns for hours at a stretch. Each species has several possible patterns, and may change from one to another without evident external cause. The tracings of each species differ from those of the other, and also from those of Arenicola marina, which were described elsewhere.

The heart-bodies and some other tissues of a number of polychaetes have been examined chemically, and the porphyrin pigments from these tissues described. Coproporphyrin III was shown to be present in relatively large concentration in all the heart-bodies, together with traces of coproporphyrin I, a tricarboxylic porphyrin and protohaematin. The body wall of light (pink) and dark (brown) coloured Arenicola and of Amphitrite also contained these pigments in varying amounts. Other non-porphyrin pigments were also seen in the body wall of some animals, the most remarkable being a colourless compound with a bright blue-fluorescence occurring in Flabelligera. Evidence is presented which supports the view that the heart-body is an haematopoietic organ, and the significance of this is discussed. Parallels are drawn between the occurrence of free porphyrins in marine animals and the occurrence of such pigments in porphyrias in man.

The rate of filtering has been examined in a series of sabellids and serpulids of widely different size, using suspensions of colloidal graphite and algal cultures. The filtering rates have been expressed as individual rates, as the volume strained per unit fresh weight, and per unit weight of the crown. It may be concluded that the smaller fan worms filter at a relatively higher rate than the larger. This is achieved partly by the relatively larger crown. Free swimming algae escape through the crown; only inert particles down to 1–2 μA are retained, implying that fan worms depend on suspended detritus alone. The filtering rates are briefly compared with those of Chaetopterus and some other filter-feeding invertebrates.

Measurements of glycogen in the body wall of Arenicola indicate that glycogen is consumed during anaerobic conditions. Estimations of lactate and pyruvate show that neither is accumulated, accounting for the absence of an oxygen debt previously found by other workers, and suggesting that glycogen breakdown leads to other acids. In Owenia most of the glycogen is stored in coelomic cells and these deposits are not drawn upon during anaerobic periods, yet this species can survive long periods without oxygen, apparently by becoming quiescent. Oil content in both species has also been measured, and was found not to fall under anaerobic conditions. It is suggested that survival of anaerobic periods may be mainly due to an ability to suspend normal activity.

Spontaneous rhythmic activity in the lugworm Arenicola marina (L.) is believed to be under control of a pacemaker located in the ventral nerve cord and oesophageal plexus (Wells, 1937). Since the rhythmic component which often dominates the spontaneous behaviour of polychaete worms consists of movements resulting in irrigation of the tube or burrow, and thus ventilation of respiratory surfaces, pacemaker control of the rhythm differs strikingly from reflex control of ventilation in other animals.
