1. The rate of diffusion of 14C-labelled glucose and glycine across isolated mesogloea and across the mesogloea and cell layers of the large solitary hydroid, Corymorpha was measured.

2. Diffusion coefficients of glucose and glycine in mesogloea were found to be about 16 times lower than their values in water and of the same order as their values in dialysis tubing and Millipore filters.
