In early embryos of eight starfish species both usual sensitivity and supersensitivity to cytotoxic neurochemicals have been found. This sensitivity is unaffected by the removal of the cell nucleus. In the starfish Aphelasterias japonica the supersensitivity in the embryos'' red halves is higher and in embryos'' white halves lower than in the whole embryos.
