Abstract
I HAVE recently described a correlation between antigenic properties and hæmoglobin composition of the blood of some passerine birds1. The relationships of red-cell antigens and of hæmoglobins suggested some possible phylogenetic affinities among these birds, since these characters are gene-determined. There was very little intraspecific variability.
