Correlation links were established during the study of anthropometric and dermatoglyphic constitution parameters in teenagers. Dermatoglyphic parameter (width of cristae) that indicates the density of papillary figure correlates with anthropometric values that reflect the extent of development of bony and muscular systems and form mesomorphic axis of somatotype. Delta index reflecting complication of papillary figure negatively correlates with extent of development of adipose tissue, that forms endomorphic somatotype axis. According to the results of the study endo-mesomorphic gradient of dermatoglyphics parameters was established. Maximal informative value of the index of cristae width was demonstrated in the course of studying the correlative links of dermatoglyphic and anthropometric signs.
