✦ Synopsis
The morphological description and meiotic behavior is presented for the interspecific hybrid between Lathyrus odoratus and L . chloranthus . This hybrid is compared with another hybrid L . hirsutus x L .
odoratus . The two hybrids were intermediate in most of their morphological features . The crossability between the first listed pair of species was perhaps a rare incidence which contrasts with L. hirsutus and odoratus which readily cross . Cytologically both F1 hybrids showed some meiotic irregularities but the majority of cells in both the hybrids showed normal meiosis with 7 bivalents at metaphase I .
