The cephalic index is the ratio of the greatest skull width divided by 

 the greatest skull length. As to the boundaries of the terms applied 

 to these ratios, most unhappily the doctors disagree. Dr. Top'nard's 

 table is as follows : 



Dolieltoccphaly (74 per cent, and less) : 



•04 and less. Ultradoiichocephaly 

 •65— -(JO. Dolichoceiihaly. 

 •70— •749. Subdolichocephaly. 

 M('saticephaly{lb to 70.9 i)er cent.): 



•75, -76. Sub . 



•77 Medium. 

 •78, -799. Super. 

 Brachycephabj (80 per cent, and over) : 



•80 to •84. Sub . 



•85 to -89. Super. 

 •90 and over. Ultra. 



The application of the cranial index to the divisions of the human 

 species, pre\iously considered, results as follows: 



f Df'liclio ^ Anglo-Scandinavians, Franks, and Germans. 



J 'I Finns of one type, Mediterraneans. 



^1 M6sati. Semites. Berbers, Egyptians. 



iBracliy. Celto-Slavs, Ligurians, Lapps.

J f and there, Melanesians.

J 'I nesians, African Negroes, Bushmen.

It will readily be seen that the cranial iudex in its three branches 

 applies to each of the three divisions of humanity [subspecies?], the 

 significance of which seems tu be that the tendency to pass from one to 



T. White races. 



II. Yellow races. 



III. Black races.
