. There is good evidence that the antigens Lu6 and Lu9 are controlled by alleles in the Lutheran complex locus, but a family is here described in which the propositus though Lu:‐6, and therefore presumably homozygous for Lu 9 , reacts only weakly with anti‐Lu9, while her Lu:‐6 sister reacts strongly, as expected. The observation awaits understanding.
