Huxley states: 'It is to the Xanthochroi and Melanochroi, taken together, that the absurd denomination of "Caucasian" is usually applied'.
[1]
He also indicates that he has omitted certain areas with complex ethnic compositions that do not fit into his racial paradigm, including much of the Indian subcontinent and Horn of Africa.
[2]
Huxley's Melanochroi eventually comprised various other dark Caucasoid populations, such as the Hamites and Moors.
