The minor modes may be due to inequali-ties in pairs of chromosomes that have no relation to the X chro-mosome or of course they may be due to any one or more of thesources of error mentioned on pages 196 to Fig. 34 ^Nlelanoplus differentialis; frequency distribution of head-lengthsof 734 spermatozoa from same left testis as the ones in figures 32 and 33.
