Plain whorls are formed when ridges rotate around a central point, while central pocket loop whorls feature a loop within a whorl, resembling a tiny fingerprint within a. Central pocked loops are differentiated from whorls by placing the line of the glass. Central pocket loop, the double loop, and the accidental.
Whorl Fingerprint
Types of fingerprint patterns including loops,, arches, and whorls.
Information on the use of fingerprints as a means of.
This pattern is less common than basic. The central pocket loop type of whorl has two deltas and at least one ridge making a complete circuit, which may be spiral, oval, circular, or any variant of a circle. See larger version of the central pocket. These are subdivided into central pocket loops, double loops and accidentals.
General information on fingerprint science and identification. In the central pocket whorl (top), the line between the two deltas does not intersect with the central pocket, but it does in the plain whorl (bottom). The pattern features a loop with a circular or spiral whorl at the center. A central pocket whorl also follows the rules of the plain whorl, but when an imaginary line is drawn between the 2 deltas, it does not touch any sufficient recurves.

Central pocket loops combine elements of loops and whorls.
This document defines and provides examples of different types of fingerprint patterns, including plain whorls, central pocket loop whorls, double loop whorls, and accidental.
