Digital and palmar dermatoglyphs in a random sample of normal Whites from Durban are described. The sample consisted of 200 males and 200 females. Features examined included frequency and distribution of finger patterns, digital and total ridge count, a-b score, and palmar topography. Data from this study are compared to similar data from South African Negroes, Indians, and Coloureds (mixed racial origin) and several outstanding racial characteristics are demonstrated in the dermatoglyphic profiles. It is suggested that the Indians' dermatoglyphic profile is dominant to those of Whites and Negroes.
本文描述了德班正常白人随机样本的数字和手掌皮纹。样本包括200名男性和200名女性。所检查的特征包括指型的频率和分布、数字和总嵴数、a-b评分以及手掌地形。本研究的数据与来自南非黑人、印度人和有色人种（混合种族起源）的类似数据进行了比较，并在皮纹图谱中展示了几个突出的种族特征。有人认为，印度人的皮纹图谱比白人和黑人的更为显著。
