The karyotype of Scoloplax distolothrix (Teleostei: Siluriformes: Scoloplacidae)

摘要

The karyotype of a fish species belonging to the family Scoloplacidae, Scoloplax distolothrix, is described for the first time. Cytogenetic studies showed that this species has 2n=50 chromosomes, 18 metacentrics, 18 submetacentrics, 10 subtelocentrics and 4 acrocentrics. The Ag-NORs are restricted to a single large metacentric pair in the interstitial position on the long arm. © 2006 The Japan Mendel Society.
