400 men and 400 women by complex of dermatoglyphical traits from different regions of Central Western Bulgaria, and namely: Trudovets, Elin Pelin, Alino and Batanovtsi were studied. Finger and palm prints of 800 individuals of both sexes were investigated and the data obtained were processed and analyzed according to the Cummins and Midlo's method (1961). It was established, that the studied population is quite homogenous by the explored dermatoglyphical traits. A sexual dimorphism by the dermatoglyphical traits of inter-digital pad III was established. A bimanual assimetry in men from Trudovets, Alino and Batanovtsi according to the dermatoglyphic traits on interdigital pads III and IV in women on interdigital pad III. In the population from Elin Pelin a bimanual assymetry on interdigital pad III in both sexes was established. Nowadays, together with the odontological blood-group and other traits are using and dermatoglyphical signs at investigations in anthropological aspect. They are genetical determined and are used at resolving of race-genetical and ethnogenetical questions during investigations of the contemporary population of different regions of the world. (Gladkova, 1964, 1966). Dermatoglyphical investigations of a contemporary Bulgarian population are carried out in different regions of the country (Markov, 1945, Karev, 1979).
