A Petri dish has members including a receptacle and an additional lid, both having an axisymmetric shape and which are delimited by a bottom wall and at least one peripheral wall, the receptacle and lid bearing complementary lock sections so that when a stack is formed by superposing at least two dishes, borne by a first component of a first dish which can engage with the lock section of the second component of the second dish, thus making them rigidly connected to one another. These lock sections cooperate by relative rotational movement of one dish with respect to the other, the lock sections being borne by the peripheral walls and including protrusions.
A Petri dish comprising members including a receptacle and an additional lid, which both have a revolution shape and which are delimited by a bottom wall and at least one peripheral wall, said receptacle and lid bearing additional lock sections laid out so that, upon forming a stack formed with superposition of at least two dishes, said lock section borne by a first of said members of a first dish may cooperate with said lock section of a second of said members member of said second dish, making them thus interdependent on each other, one of said members including a peripheral wall which extends above and below said bottom wall while the other of said members member is dimensioned so that, upon forming said stack, said member of said first dish is partly engaged into the other of said members of said second dish, in a housing delimited by said bottom wall and a portion of said wall said additional lock sections cooperating by a relative rotary movement of one of said dishes relatively to the other one, and said lock sections being borne by said peripheral walls and including protrusions.
