HL—A typing of 176 unrelated Norwegian Lapps revealed several differences in antigen and gene frequencies and in gametic associations as compared to non‐Lappish populations. The frequencies of HL—A1, HL—A8, and HL—A12 were very much lower and those of HL—A3, HL—A9, AA (W22), and FJH—AJ (>W27) significantly higher than in Caucasoid populations.
