抄録

The chromosomes and the karyotype of a female pangolin, Manis crassicaudata collected from Mysore (south Inida) have been described. The karyotype consists of a diploid number of 36 chromosomes. All the autosomes are biarmed except one small and telocentric pair with 7 pairs of large to small metacentric, 6 pairs of submetacentric and 3 pairs of large subtelocentric chromosomes. The X chromosome is a medium sized submetacentric. This study has shown that the pangolins of Varanasi (north India) and Bellary (south India) belong to M. crassicaudata and not M pentadactyla and thus widened the horizon for further karyological studies of pangolins.
