SUMMARY.— Two cases of cutaneous lymphocytoma associated with solar urticaria and polymorphic light eruption are reported and the results of phototesting described. These results suggest that the action spectrum in each case was probably dependent on the type of associated photodermatosis and not on the lymphocytoma. The relationship between lymphocytoma, “actinic reticuloid” and the lymphocytic response to phototesting is discussed.
