More pics of Ceará, a Northeast Brazilian state, also overwhelmingly "pardo" and also certainly among the least African influenced:

It varies from region to region, and from individual to individual. Overall, they're mainly euro (51% to 75%), with the rest split between african and native, with the african being most important generally, but not always so, particularly in some regions (like Northern Brazil), and the native being generally always present anyhow. The study I posted on the 1st page has results with 'pardos' from several parts of Brazil.

I see. So the higher percentage is Euro, followed by SSA, and then native component.

Will take a closer look at the results. Thank you for replying!
