A CYTOLOGICAL examination of female gametophytes of Laminaria digitata (Huds.) Lamour, L. saccharina (L) Lamour, L. hyperborea (Gunn.) Fosl., L. ochroleuca de la Pylaie., grown in culture has revealed a likely haploid chromosome number of 31. This agrees with earlier work1 on Laminaria spp. and with work2 on Nereocystis luetkeana (Mert.) Post and Rupr.
