Summary The results presented are compatible with the hypothesis that Lewis ( Le, le ) and secretor ( Se, se ) are two independent loci which interact in the phenotype (Ceppellini, 1955a, b ). The special feature of the Fulani and Habe is that the phenotype frequencies of non‐secretor and Le – are different from those which have been observed in other populations, and yet the independence of Lewis and secretor has again been demonstrated. Family studies in the Habe appear to be in good agreement with the hypothesis that Le – is recessive. The field work was supported by grants to one of us (D. F. R.) from the Colonial Development and Welfare Fund, and from the Nuffield Foundation. For gifts of antisera we are indebted to Dr I. Dunsford and Dr A. E. Mourant. We are grateful to Dr J. P. Garlick for much useful information, and to Mrs K. Lele and Miss L. Gorman for technical assistance.
