Abstract
1. The nature of the photic response of chromatophores distributed over the test of Diadema setosum was investigated.
2. By applying a minute light spot to the various parts of single chromatophores, it was observed that the chromatophore can react locally to the light stimulus.
3. It is concluded that the photosensitivity resides within the chromatophore itself.
