While the infiltration of the skin in the papulo-squamoussyphilide is very marked, the scaling is usually comparatively slight.In psoriasis, on the other hand, the scaling is commonly found tobe greatly in excess of the infiltration. The eruption shown in the accompanying plate occurred severalmonths after infection, as may be inferred from the grouping of thelesions which is never seen in the early lenticular syphilide. Whilethe eruption presents a notable resemblance to psoriasis, its syphiliticnature might be inferred from the existence of lesions upon thenucha, where psoriasis is not commonly found, from the fad thatthe scaling is limited to the central portion of the infiltrated patches,and from their characteristic irregular border. In coalescing psoriaticlesions a circumscribed and scalloped border would be observed. PLATE LXXX.

The pustular syphilide, like the papular form of the disease,may consist of small or large lesions. In the former case they areusually numerous and may be conical (acne-form) or rounded (variola-form). In the latter case they are fewer in number and manifest atendency to increase in size and to become crusted (efthyma-form).The pustular syphilide may occur as a relapsing eruption a fewmonths after the earliest secondary outbreak, but generally it developsfrom a small or large papular syphilide through supp
