Abstract
IN papers published in the Journal of Experimental Zoology (vol. xxvi., 1918, p. 65, and xxxi., 1920, p. 171) Guyer and Smith have given an account of the transmission, through successive generations, of eye defects which occurred in the offspring of rabbits and mice treated, while pregnant, with lens-sensitised fowl serum. The greater part of the papers concerns experiments carried out with albino rabbits, and in their case alone was the question of heredity considered, but the nature of the defects in both cases appears to have been the same.
