APPENDIX TO PART I. ON THE HUMAN CRANIA. 
Since the publication of the Craniological part of this Report in 1884, 1 have received 
additional specimens of skulls of certain of the races then described, and in order to 
give a larger basis for comparison, and for the determination of the characters of the 
skulls of these races, I append some tables of measurements of these more recent speci- 
mens, with brief notices of such of their features as seemed to be deserving of special 
remark. As memoirs on the Fuegians and on the Crania of the Jervis Islanders, Torres 
Strait, have also been published subsequently to the appearance of my Report on the 
Human Crania, in which skulls of these people were described, I shall also briefly refer 
to the chief facts stated and conclusions arrived at by their respective authors. 
Australians. 
After the tables of measurements of the Australian skulls described in Part I., Report 
on Human Crania, had been put in type, I had the opportunity of examining some 
additional Australian crania, and I incorporated some observations on their characters in 
subsequent pages of that Report (p. 46, et. seq.), more especially with reference to the 
proportions of the cephalic and vertical indices. I have now included in Table XV. 
more detailed measurements of five of these skulls, which have been presented to the 
Anatomical Museum of the University, and along with them have given the measure- 
ments of two other crania from New South Wales, received in 1885. The localities 
from which these skulls were obtained are stated in the table. 
Each skull was dolichocephalic. In four specimens the vertical index exceeded the 
cephalic, and in two specimens the cephalic and vertical indices were equal. In only one 
specimen, viz., the Milang tribesman, the height was greater than the breadth, so that, 
as stated on p. 49 of Part I., it was markedly dolicho-platy cephalic. With tw r o excep- 
tions the vertical index was below 72, i.e., they were tapeinocephalic, and those with the 
vertical index above 72 were metriocephalic. The gnathic index ranged from 98 to 101, 
so that they were all mesognathous. In the nasal index four were platyrhine and two
