Summary 1212 subjects from six endogamous groups were investigated for A l A 2 BO, MN, Eh (‐C, ‐c, ‐D, ‐E) and Duffy blood groups, secretion of ABH substances in saliva, threshold determination of P.T.C. taste reaction and colour‐blindness. The results show an interesting pattern of genetical diversity in these six endogamous groups. The findings have been discussed statistically to assess the overall genetical differences in these endogamous groups.
