Ladogan ≈ Baltid ,
Neo-Danubian ≈ East Nordid + Baltid (Poles and Russians)

I found these big collections of images of people (I think they're athletes) from the Baltic states and Finland. Here are a bunch that seem to fit with Coon's Neo-Danubian type. People are saying that they don't think it's a real type, but it does seem to be. neo-danubian.png

This is supposed to be a mix of Danubian and Ladogan. Coon's Danubian was a more reduced, mesocephalic type of Nordic, which would probably be classed as Sub-Nordid by most people here. The Ladogan was similar to what people here call East Baltid, although it wasn't necessarily blonde.

=> So "Neo-Danubians" are a sort of East Nordid/East Baltid/Gorid(East Alpinoid) combination.

@Jelisava : the first Croatian girl seems to be Noric, since Andrea Susnjara seems to be Nordobaltid (= classical "Slavic" look).

I think so, yeah. Maybe not that exact combination, but a general mix of Eastern European types that is mostly reduced (ie. not robust or Borreby-influenced) and very slightly Mongoloid-looking. It's a variable type. This kind of look seems to be more common in a lot of places in Eastern Europe than the Baltid type.
