Petroleum ether extracts of discharged glebal masses and of developing fruitbodies of Sphaerobolus stellatus (Tode)Pers. were made and their absorption spectra determined. The residues from the extracts after evaporation were chromatographed. At least two colored fractions were discernible from the residue of the glebal masses; furthermore, at least three fractions (one of which is identical with β-carotene) were distinguishable in the residue from developing fruit-bodies. 1972 Uitgeverij Dr. W.
