 cause for this feature, unless it has been gained through hybridization. 4. Flavor. This 

 seems to be the direct sequence of hybridization, in its more marked aspects; in its lesser 

 aspects it does not seem to exceed that which occurs between natural varieties. 5. Aspect. 

 This seems to have been acquired through the action of hybridization, when the influence 

 of one parent appears to have become predominant. The whole subject of the influences 

 noted and to be ascribed to hybridization must be left for further study.

 ancient Egypt or Greece. Figures occur as in the following list :
