The Inherited Effects of Changes 49 
tions that called them forth. The result is only a special case 
of the inheritance of fluctuating variations. On the other hand, 
in some of the cases of aberrations given by Standfuss, it ap- 
pears that a permanent change has been brought about by the 
environment which persists afterward, independently of the 
influences that caused it. What is still more interesting is that 
the new characters may be transmitted to the offspring formed 
by a cross between the new and the parent type. We shall 
consider this question at greater length in a later chapter.
