    Abstract:
    Morpho-behavioural distances between three endogamous Muslim groups (Sunni, Shia and Bohra) and one Hindu group (Brahman) of Madhya Pradesh, separately for males and females, were estimated. All the differences were statistically significant. The male and female distances were combined into a pooled distance. The Bohra group was found to be distant from all the other groups in both males and females. The relationships between the other three were different in the two sexes-Sunni and Shia forming the closest cluster in males and Sunni and Brahman in females. The Sunni were intermediate between the Shia and the Brahman in both sexes. The morpho-behavioural distances were compared with the genetic distances.
