Two out of 15 cases of megaloblastic anaemia in Punjabi immigrants in the Southall area of Middlesex, studied in one year, were found to have all the features of Addisonian pernicious anaemia. This unexpected finding in Asiatics calls for a reappraisal of the previously accepted rarity of this disease in dark‐skinned races and draws attention to the need for consideration of pernicious anaemia as a cause of megaloblastic anaemia in the Indian immigrant.
