pelvic cavity had a mean depth of 79 mm., in the male it was also 79 mm. The mean 
pubo-innominate index of the adult females was 45‘5, that of the male was 45. The 
maximum length of the ilium in the adult females was 105 mm., the minimum 93, 
the mean was 100 mm.; in the male the length was 99 mm. The maximum length of 
the ischium in the adult females was 71 mm., the minimum 68, the mean was 70 mm. 
In the adult females the ischium ranged from about two-thirds to three-fourths the length 
of the ilium ; in the male the ischium was nearly two-thirds the length of the ilium. 
The mean ischio-innominate index in the adult females was 43, and this index was also 43 
in the single adult male. In each adult pelvis the breadth of the sacrum exceeded the 
length; the mean sacral index in the adult females was 111, and the same index in the 
adult male was 114. In the young female the index was only 96‘5.
