A sample of 757 school going boys of Yadava parentage was studied in a cross-sectional anthropometric survey in 1986-87 at Visakhapatnam. Here the data on upper arm and calf circumferences; and triceps and subscapular skinfold thickness have been reported. At all ages between 1 and 20 years their mean values of circumferences and fat folds are observed to be lower than those of the ICMR standards 1984 and Bengali boys.
