A ‘new’, inherited, high‐frequency blood group antigen has been named PEL and is numbered 901014. Two PEL‐propositi with anti‐PEL have been found, both French‐Canadians. Two other French‐Canadian propositi with very weak expression of PEL on their red cells have an antibody, provisionally named anti‐MTP, which does not react with PEL‐cells.
