Do you think that, among the major races, some ethnicities look more 'stereotypical' than others?

Maybe to other people but I don't believe much in stereotypes so I have a difficult time seeing it. I know most people seem to think of Africans as Nigerian or Egyptian, and Asians as East Asians, particularly Chinese or Japanese.

Europeans - NW Europeans, particularly Germanics
Africans - West & Central Africans
East Asians - Chinese
South Asians - Dravidians
Middle Easterners - Arabs

But Levantine Arabs, Iraqis or Gulf Arabs?

It is not an apples to apples comparison. Somalis are half Middle Eastern, and Malaysians are mixed with Australoid. Greeks and Swedes are both "Caucasoid".

In that regard Swedes are more atypical for Europe, since Anatolian ancestry is a large part of European ancestry. Saami is not.

Lappish blood among Swedes is not significant and can't be compared to the Near Eastern element among Greeks. Only in some very rare cases does it show in the phenotype of Swedes. It'd be better to make that statement about Finns since they have significant Siberian ancestry, although not nearly to the same degree of Near Eastern ancestry among Greeks.

There isn't a Near Eastern element in Greeks except for the islands.

How much NE do Greek Islanders have?

How much NE do Greek Islanders have?

Probably similar to Sicily and southern Italy -- 15-20% but some of that is post-Neolithic Caucasus, rather than anything Semitic.
