 Pattern Intensity in Soles 



Palm. Total intensity values range from 0.76 to 6.10, with 

 an average of 4.16. Man presents the value of 1.14, which is 

 noteworthy in being one of the three lowest intensities; the 

 minimum is in Tarsius, and in Hylobates the value is 1.40. 



Of particular interest is the wide range of variation ap- 

 pearing in the four prosimian genera. It is here that the 

 upper and lower limits of observed values occur (Tarsius, 

 0.76; Galago, 6.10), though in Nycticebus and Lemur the 

 intensities (4.52 and 4.75 respectively) are not much above the 

 average of non-human primates.
