Speaking generally of Ireland, we may say that the “index of nigrescence” <ref name="v4-p347-n1">It is, perhaps, necessary to say that this ready means of comparing the colours of two peoples or localities is obtained by subtracting the number of red and fair-haired persons from that of the dark-haired, together with twice the black-haired. Thus, D + 2 N – (R + F)= Index.</ref> oscillates between 14 and 78. A population akin to that of England occurs in the east, while the Western, and more especially the Southern counties are especially dark. Three localities, however, are ''ipsis Hiberniis Hibernior.'' These are Mallow, county Cork, with an index of nigrescence of 80·6, Castlemaine, county Kerry (I. N. 81·7), and Clifden, county Galway (I. N. 89·5). We have in this an exceptional population existing in the British Isles. | Speaking generally of Ireland, we may say that the “index of nigrescence” <ref name="v4-p347-n1">It is, perhaps, necessary to say that this ready means of comparing the colours of two peoples or localities is obtained by subtracting the number of red and fair-haired persons from that of the dark-haired, together with twice the black-haired.
