An excellent aquarium oxygenator, Elodea canadensis is great for teaching photosynthesis and plasmolysis.

Sarcophaga bullata are gray flesh flies. These flies are reared on decaying flesh and pupate quickly, within 5 to 7 days from birth, to illustrate complete metamorphosis in Diptera.

Certain strains of bacteria have their own pigments, creating a rainbow of different natural colors. This set includes bacterial cultures with a variety of different colors.

One jar containing a mixture of 6 different genera of algae. Each algae is cultured individually in Ward's laboratories, and mixed together immediately prior to shipment to ensure an adequate supply of each organism.

Extremely small euglenoid. Usually doesn’t rotate when swimming. Scavenger. Hay medium.

Characterized by flagella; lacks plastids.

One each of foliose, crustose, and fruticose lichen. The foliose and crustose lichens are any of a wide variety of species; the fruticose lichen is either cladonia or reindeer moss. All samples are field-collected and come in a 4 oz. labeled jar.

Observe Different Plants’ Methods of Capture and Feeding.

Characterized by a lack of rigid cellulosic walls, instead these organisms have pellicles made of protein. They store paramylon instead of starch.

Planaria are a flatworm commonly used in science fair projects. They do not bite and move very slowly, making them easy for young students to observe.
