Finger and palm prints of 677 subjects (395 males and 282 females) were analyzed for 11 qualitative dermatoglyphic variables to study the relationship between the three migrant groups of fishermen of Puri. Sanghvi's X2-distance gives configuration confirmatory to caste affiliations, quite clearly in males, but to a lesser degree in females. A comparison with distance configurations obtained for quantitative finger/palm variables and for anthropometric/genetic markers suggests that the qualitative dermatoglyphic traits stand out as useful markers in more convincingly portraying the affinities at the level of sub-castes.
