(Polskie Towarzystwo Antropologiczne, 1986) Mitei, Richard Kiprono A.
In supplement of the elaborations by Glinka [1971], and Glinka , Jasicki and Wiśniewska [1983] the
author presented a description of palm dermatoglyphics of 1777 inhabitants of Palue island (Lesser Sunda
islands). He found a comparatively low frequency of true patterns both on the Thenar and Hypothenar.
Differences in the occurrence of patterns on the right and left hands were weakly manifested, on the other hand
small differences between sexes have been found.
