  Hi All,

Thanks to everyone who responded to my message about the colorimetry of 
the Ishihara plates. For the record, below is a summary of the 
references I received.

sources for the Ishihara Test as determined by colorimetric methods.  B. 
Drum (ed).  Colour Vision Deficiencies XI:  327-333.

Lakowski R (1965) Colorimetric and photometric data for the 10th edition 
of the Ishihara plates. Brit J Physiol Optics 22:195-207.

CIEXYZ chromaticity diagrams are available in Pokorny et al., Procedures 
for Testing Color Vision. Report of Working Group 41, that you can 
download from the following web page:

Matthew Honson. To appear in the August 2003 issue of Color Research and 
Application

Thanks again to all who responded.
