V. summary

For the purpose of describing the development of the Romney lambs’ coats it was found convenient to divide the skin into six areas, A, B, C, D, E and F, each being formed by the grouping of all regions that develop at the same time and rate.

These areas are determined by the following methods:

1. All regions where X and Y follicles begin growth at the same time belong to the same area.

2. All regions attaining the trio stage of development at the same time belong to the same area.
