Abstract
The karyotype of Erythrocebus patas was studied using G, Q and C bands and NOR staining and compared to those of Miopithecus talapoin, Macaca mulatta and Cercopithecus aethiops. The comparison shows a large number of homoeologies, but several chromosome pairs cannot be matched. The mechanisms that may have originated the karyotypes of these species are discussed. © 1981 Dr W. Junk Publishers.
