The karyotype of this species shows one pair of large, 8 pairs of medium to small telocentric autosomes and the largest telocentric X chromosomes (
Fig. 20a
). The spermatogonial metaphase also presents 2n=19 (18 autosomes and X) (
Fig. 20b
). There are 9 autosomal bivalents and the X at first metaphase (
Fig. 20c
). As a result of the first division, there are
two types
of second metaphases: 9 autosomes with X and 9 autosomes (
Figs. 20d, e
).
