The maximum nasal index was in men lOO and in women 

 92 ; the minimum, in men 40 and in women 49. It is thus 

 shown that the extreme individual variation extended : In the 

 Jews — the maximum was 44.92 percent larger than the average, 

 and the minimum was 42.03 percent smaller than the average 

 nasal index; in the Jewesses these figures stand 33.33 and 29.00 

 percent respectively. The range of extreme individual variation,.

as indicated by the difference between the maximum and mini- 

 mum was 86.95 percent of the average nasal index of the Jews 

 and 62.32 percent in the Jewesses. This can be considered a 

 very large variability, larger in men than in women, and again 

 confirming the fact that the nose is the most variable of the traits, 

 we have studied in the Jews.
