stature from a fairly large series of living indivicluals.'^ Now the Aino are a race 
widely divergent from the French, and therefore, althotigh the stature and long bones 
are not measured on the same group, we are likely to get a very good test of the 
safety with which we can apply our stature results from one local race to a second. 
The stature, as measured by Koganei on 95 living males, was 156'70 centims., and 
on 71 living females, 147*10 centims. The long bone measurements were made on 
20 to 25 female and 40 to 45 male skeletons, not quite from the same districts as the 
living groups. The maximum length of the long bones is given in the paper by 
Miss Lee and myself, ‘ Roy. Soc. Proc.,’ vol, 61, pp. 347-8, and accordingly ahowance 
must be made for the spine in the case of the tibia. We then have the following
