Abstract
The tetrapolarity and multiallelism of Lenzites betulinus are confirme d as established by Vandendries and Brodie in 1932. The genotype of th e four compatibility groups is re-attributed after detection by retroc onfrontation of heterocaryosis in A=B not-equal confrontations. The ph enotypes of interactions between hemi-compatible homocaryons, particul arly that of ''sexual barrier'' (A not-equal B=), are redescribed. The hyphothesis of a gazeous production as the agent of mutual sexual rep ulsion by Vandendries and Brodie is revised as a repulsive pheromone p roduction.
