opological Institute_, vol. 12, pp. 72 and 73). Semang Sturdily built (Haddon, _Races of Man, &c._, p. 9). Aetas Well formed and sprightly (Earle, _Papuans_, p. 123), and with limbs which, corresponding to their stature, are uncommonly slender, but well formed (Semper, _Journal of Anthropology_ for October, 1870, p. 135). Well-built little men with broad chests, symmetrical limbs, and well-developed muscles (Reed, _Negritos of Zambales,_ p. 34). Dutch New Guinea dwarfs Of sturdy build (Rawling, _Geographical Journal_, vol. 38, p. 241). Mafulu Fairly strong and muscular, but rather slender and slight in development. _Cephalic Index._ Andamanese 82 This is Dr. Haddon's figure (_Races of Man, &c._, p. 9). Messrs. Skeat and Blagden say they are decidedly brachycephalic (_Pagan Races, &c._, p. 573). Semang 78.9 Dr. Haddon's figure (_Races of Man, &c._, p. 9). Skeat and Blagden describe them as brachycephalic to mesatecephalic (_Pagan Races, &c._, p. 34). Aetas 80 Dr. Haddon's figure (_Races of Man, &c._, p. 9). Skeat and Blagden describe them as decidedly brachycephalic (_Pagan Races, &c._, p. 573). Reed gives 82 as the average (_Negritos of Zambales_, p. 34). Dutch New Guinea dwarfs 80.2 This figure is calculated by me from the actual length and breadth given by Captain Rawling (_Geographical Journal_, vol. 38, p. 245). Mafulu 80 _Nasal Index._ Andamanese ? Semang 101 Calculated by me from average of actual measurements of 5 people given by Skeat and Blagden (_Pagan Races, &c._, p. 577). Aetas ? Reed records highly varying indices, the bulk of which were hyperplatyrhine (87.9-108.8), and nearly all the others of which were ultraplatyrhine (109 and over) (_Negritos of Zambales_, pp. 34, 35). Dutch New Guinea dwarfs 80.9 Calculated by me from Captain Rawling's actual figures. Mafulu 84.3 _Colour of Skin._ Descriptions of this are so general, and so much depends in each case upon the relative meanings attached by each writer to the terms used by him, that I prefer to depend as regards the Andamanese, Semang, and Aetas upon Dr. Haddon's descriptions, which are doubtless based upon his comparison of those given in previous literature.
