A slight difference between our measurements of legs and those given by Taufflieb and Goff (Ip = 607 619 vs. 567 585) could be caused by a difference in the mode of leg measuring (e.g. inclusion or exclusion of extreme parts of coxae or tips of tarsi, presence or absence of an allowance for the legs curvature).
