The pads are prominently elevated. Pad II is the largest 

 and most. inflated of the interdigital series and pad III is the 

 smallest in expanse. Pad IV is variable in height and extent ; 

 in one hand it is elongated and merged proximally with the 

 H pad. Pads Th and I may be either discrete or partially 

 merged, and in two hands H and Th are approximated and 

 partially blended.

 one interdigital area presents a nearly 

 parallel succession of straight ridges, 

 though occasionally the ridges may con- 

 verge slightly at the proximal border of the 

 area.

The typical pad arrangement is considerably modified. Only 

 three definite prominences are expressed. One of these oc- 

 cupies a region proximal to digits 2, 3 and 4, extending well 

 into the central area; this pad may be identified as a fusion 

 of II and III. The largest prominence is U-shaped, its situ- 

 ation indicating that it represents the blending of IV, H and 

 Th. There are two shallow grooves so placed as to suggest 

 lines of juncture of these pads. Pad I is a massive elevation 

 lying at the base of the markedly opposable hallux. In the
