This paper is about the differences of digit ration in two human populations from two localities. These localities are: Oradea, from Bihor county and Zalău, from Sălaj county. Each of these localities have over two thousands of inhabitants, which means the variability of some phenotipical features must be a large one. However, not every features are very heterogenous. This fact is showed in our study. We investigated 100 individual from each locality. it were measured the lenghts of the digits 2, 3 and 4, and then we made the digit ratio. The results are important: the digit measurements are very different in the two localities; the 2D:4D digit ratio, too.
