as to fall into subgeneric divisions, as in the case of the 

 genera just referred to. In the Amaryllis-Brunsvigia 

 set two closely related genera are represented and there 

 is a tendency to higher reactivity of Amaryllis bella- 

 donna than of Brunsvigia difl being 

 noted especially in the numbers of the very high and the 

 low reactivities, and in the sums and averages. The hy- 

 brids show distinctly lower reai tivi . than 

 those of either parent, and there is striking identity a~ 

 regards the distribution of the reaction-intensities among 

 the several divisions, but there are distinct though not 

 marked differences in both sums and averages, -0 that 

 while these two starches are not distinguishable from 

 each other by differences in distribution of the reacti a- 

 intensities they may be distinguished by the sums and 

 averages of the reaction-intensities. In the Crinums 

 there are subgeneric groups characterized by tender and 

 hardy species, the former having a tendency to distinctly 

 lower reactivities than the latter. Each of the by 

 tends to be more closely related in its reaction-intens 

 to either seed or pollen parent. 



The differences in distribution in the highly reactive 

 specie- and hybrids are conspicuous especially in the 

 number of very high reactivities and the low number of 

 the very low reactivities, and for tl i re erse in the low 

 reactive species and the hybrids. The sums and avi 

 are markedly different in the two groups. In ~H.wm.an- 

 thus, If. puniceus seems to be representative of a sub- 



ic group that differs from that of which the other 

 two species belong. In Iris, the /. persica-sind 



a var. purpurea set stands distinctly apart from the 

 other ' hibiting markedly higher reactivities. In 



Begonia, 1'. socotrana is evidently variant in relation 

 to the other species, and is. as is well known, an c 

 tional form of this genus. Tn Musa there i ; a very well- 

 marked tendency for higher reactivities of one than of 

 the other parent, which indicates that I 

 sent some form of generic subdn ision.
