 * 1. Race blanche
 * Arabe-Indienne
 * Celtique, Caucasienne
 * 2. Race basanée
 * Chinoise
 * Kalmouk, Mongole
 * Lapone, Astraque
 * 3. Race cuivreuse
 * Americaine ou Caribe
 * II. Espèce - Angle facial de 75 - 82 degrés
 * 4. Race brun foncée
 * Malaie ou Indienne
 * 5. Race noire
 * Cafres
 * Nègres
 * 6. Race noirâtre
 * Hottentots
 * Papous
