Two cases, of different race and sex, agree in showing defective hair and teeth, unusual development of bones of the skull, maldeveloped bridge of the nose and excessively thick lips. Each is also characterized by several other anomalies, the [male] subject being without sweat glands. The latter patient had one brother normal and one similar to himself but no other known relatives showing the complex. The girl had 2 normal sibs, but on her father''s side, hair and teeth deficiencies were known to occur. Ten previous cases have been reported and the author proposes to group them all under the designation hereditary ectodermal dysplasia with the subdivision anhidrotic type to include those without sweat glands. Detailed descriptions are given and the possible etiology and heredity of the conditions discussed. This manifestation is not to be confused with Gilford''s "progeria," which it somewhat resembles.
