Abstract

Hairy nose tip (HNT) is reported here to be another male sex‐limited trait in man. Out of 1,220 females examined, none demonstrated the trait, whereas the male population frequency is estimated to be 7.35%. The age of onset is 16 years, with a greater prevalence in the age group 46–55, and declining frequency after age 55. Pedigree data do not allow discrimination among several genetic hypotheses.
