Rabaud: Telegony 

 Table I. 



393 



This table constitutes an important 

 argument against the doctrine of tele- 

 gony. In the cases of eight of the mares, 

 the lack of influence of the fecundation 

 by a zebra is, morphologically, indispu- 

 table because not one of the colts born 



after the hybrids is marked by stripes 

 of any kind. The colts foaled by the 

 mare Mulatto by the stallion B and then 

 by the stallion L, after the birth of a 

 hybrid, alone show stripes. These 

 stripes are not persistent; nevertheless.
