(c) Physical Proportions.-The proportions borne to the main measurements to the stature (taken as 100) are of interest, as differing somewhat from those observed in other districts surveyed.

FACE.

The face is long in proportion to the stature, though less so than in any of the other localities reported on, the mean being 7.2, as against 7.3 for Ballycroy; 7.6 for the Aran Islands; 7·5 and 7·4 for the Mullet and Inishkea. The canon is 6.68. The extremes noted were 6.5 and 8.3.

Upper Face.-The mean is 46, as against 4.4 for Inishbofin; 4.3 for the Mullet; and 4.2 for Ballycroy, thus showing an exceptional length for this part of the face.

Nose. This does not bear a very constant proportion to the stature, the extremes being 3.4 and 2·5. The mean is 2.9, less than observed in any of the other localities, the lowest of which (the Mullet) had a mean for this proportion of 3.1. The canon is 3.3.

SITTING HEIGHT.

The sitting height is, on the average, midway between that of the Mullet (513) and Ballycroy (53.1), the mean being 52.1. The extremes were 54.5 and 47.4, a wider range of variation than met with before.

UPPER LIMB.

Span. The span stretch was in every case in excess of the stature, and in almost all the cases was exceptionally great. The average of the 56 men measured was 105 7, the same as for Ballycroy.

Hand.-The hand is short for the stature, the mean proportion being 11.2, with extremes of 12.2 and 10.6.

Forearm. This section of the arm is long, as the mean proportion is 151, nearly the same as Ballycroy (15-3), the Aran Islands (15·1), and shorter than the average for the Mullet, &c. The extremes were 16.0 and 14·0.
