[32 Plate 3 gives front and side views of the mesaticephalic (almost brachycephalic) skull A and Plate 4 gives similar views of the dolichocephalic skull C. All the photographs were made as nearly as possible exactly half the sizes of the originals; but the photographer has made the front view of skull A about an eighth of an inch too narrow (with, of course, a corresponding deficiency in height), so that the tendency to roundness of this skull is not quite sufficiently shown, and the proportion of its height to its length is reduced, in the plate.— The Mafulu Mountain People of British New Guinea
Of the twenty-nine women twelve are brachycephalic; twelve are mesaticephalic; and five are dolichocephalic.— The Bontoc Igorot
Medium heads (mesaticephalic) 75 to 79— The Negrito and Allied Types in the Philippines and The Ilongot or Ibilao of Luzon
Six are brachycephalic, and four mesaticephalic, the variation extending from 75.7 to 96.3.— The Negrito and Allied Types in the Philippines and The Ilongot or Ibilao of Luzon
