Abstract

Two male and 5 female specimens have been studied with identical results. Two females were collected in Uruguay and Argentina. The others came through the courtesy of Mr. Dennis A. Meritt, Lincoln Park Zoo, Chicago, Illinois, USA. The X chromosome was identified by autoradiography, and the Y is unmistakable. In excellent preparations it is clearly acrocentric. Barr bodies and drumsticks have been reported in females.
