    The development of Dictyostelium discoideum was compared in two varying temperatures after 30 hrs of development. The D. discoideum cultures were observed for developmental differences in multicellular aggregate forms of slugs and fruiting bodies in 10°C and 22°C. The mean percent of organisms was higher in less developed stages for both temperatures. The average percent of aggregates were higher at 41.625% for the D. discoideum cultures that developed at 22°C. The average precent of fingers were
