Abstract
The characteristics of six deuteranomalous observers and one protanomalous observer have been examined. In the case of the former it has been shown that, in contrast with what occurs in normal trichromatism and dichromatism, it is not possible to take mean values as representative of the deuteranomalous observer. This fact, combined with the results of the statistical survey with the Nagel anomaloscope, suggests that anomalous trichromatism is an intermediate state between dichromatism and normal trichromatism. In the case of the protanomalous this transition would seem to be of a continuous nature, but for the deuteranomalous there is a subsidiary maximum in the distribution curve.
