A total of 1,025 adults belonging to four Brazilian tribes were simulataneously studied for 12–16 anthropometric characteristics and 7–11 blood polymorphic loci. Several comparisons using both univariate and multivariate statistical techniques failed to show the negative correlation between these two sets of variables found by other workers. © 1994 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
