title: [Quantitative value of the hallux pattern: mother-child correlation].
abstract: Mother-child correlations based upon the ridge-counts of the patterns of the hallucal areas of the soles were computed and compared with the results from finger-tips and palms. The results which are to be found in the hallucal areas of the sole join seamless to those known from finger and hand characters and show that the ridge-count of the hallucal pattern is in the same way suitable for quantitative genetic analysis of dermatoglyphics as the generally accepted dermatoglyphic counts.
