Dermatoglyphic data are presented for 73 male and 27 female Lowland Rajputs of Punjab, using qualitative as well as quantitative procedures. The frequencies for digital ulnar-loops interdigital area IV palmar patterns and for axial triradius t are high in this sample. The mainline formula 11.9.7 occurs most frequently. The C mainline showed a high frequency of occurrence where the line is either aborted or missing. There are marked sex differences in the data, females having a higher mean pattern intensity index and a lower value for Dankmeijer’s index than in males.
