Abstract
Dermatoglyphic features of the Kazak, a Mongol tribe in Iran have been studied. C-line terminations showed an interesting feature viz frequencies of the proximal and absent modal types are very high compared to the other populations. Asymmetry and diversity of finger ridge counts from finger to finger showed that the Kazaks are characterized by more or less high heterogeneity and asymmetry. Means of the various palmar ridge counts and MLI are also reported. Bilateral comparisons of various dermatoglyphic features showed significant differences for C- and D-line terminations, c-d ridge count and MLI. The obtained results have been compared with those of the other Iranian populations and frequently showed significant differences.
