Abstract

Chromosome and detailed karyotype information (number, shape, relative length, arm ratio, centromeric index) are described for E. alacris alacris of Chandoli National Park, India, belonging to the subfamily Eyprepocnemidinae. The diploid number of the chromosome was found to be 2n=23 with all metacentric pairs. The X chromosome is metacentric.
