values for distance from meatus to bregma. Some of the 

 skulls in which the meatus to bregma measurement is very 

 short may show an extremely long distance between meatus 

 and the anterior end of the internasal suture. 



The slight general agreement in the slopes of text-figures 

 35, 36 and 37 is more largely due to range in total size of 

 the various skulls than to type differences. However, the

wide variations in height of adjacent lines in text-figure 37 

 are due to the presence of some strongly pronounced types. 

 In the auditory meatus to bregma measurements there is 

 no evidence of these pronounced types, and this particular 

 measurement is insignificant for contrasting types. The dis- 

 tance from meatus to the anterior end of the internasal suture, 

 however, is highly significant as an indication of the skull
