Hydra are tiny animals closely related to jellyfish. They can be carnivorous as well as photosyntheic due to their symbiotic relationship with green algae Zoochlorellae.

Hydra are tiny animals closely related to jellyfish. They are a carnivorous species that can be found in healthy freshwater rivers and streams where they attach themselves to plants and rocks.

One culture containing brown, black and white planaria is useful for comparative study.

You will receive a sample of both green and brown hydra mixed together, allowing you to observe the differences between the two organisms.

This is the most widely studied Turbellarian, a free-living flatworm commonly used in science fair projects.

Drosophila melanogaster, the common fruit fly, is widely used in genetic studies. They express a number of mutations such as eye, wing, and body mutations.

Teach your students about the complete metamorphosis of an insect with these mealworms.

Drosophila, the common fruit fly is widely used in genetic studies. Ward's offers a large number of mutations to help you demonstrate complex genetics concepts.

Mature Drosophila are cultured in our own labs, and are marked with the culture initiation date. Culture is shipped in our instant medium in a shatterproof vial. The Fruit Fly pupae will usually appear within ten days of the ship date. You will also receive WARD’S Drosophila Culture Guide. Note: We can supply any of our single strains in the larger quantity for 100 students. Call our Customer Service department for details.

Examine the morphological characteristics of typical soil nematodes with the specimens in our well-populated culture.

This harmless insect parasitizes the Sarcophaga (flesh fly) pupae. Females usually lay 30–50 eggs in the pupae, which provide food for the Nasonia larvae when they hatch.
