Probability distributions associated with the third and fourth neighborhoods of the structure invariant φlm = φh + φk + φl + φm are described. These distributions yield estimates for the invariants φlm (not merely the cosine invariants cos φlm) which are consistent with a specified enantiomorph. The estimates are particularly good in the favorable case that the standard deviations of the distributions are small.
