| Abstract: | The transverse cephalic curvature index defined by Dash Sharma (Proc. Indian Sci. Cong. 54:496, 1967) was studied in 38 families of both the Adivasi population of Orissa and the Andhras of Visakhapatnam (Andhra Pradesh). Correlation coefficients estimated for the different familial combinations gave a negative result, suggesting the non-hereditary nature of the index. |
