Abstract
Chromosomal polymorphism has been studied in 31 natural populations of Ch.borokensis. For 11 out of 31 populations quantitative analysis of chromosomal polymorphism has been performed. Data from previous publications (10 populations) have also been used to perform an overview of the chromosomal polymorphism of Ch.borokensis and to establish the species range. Most studied populations show a high level of chromosomal polymorphism: on average 66.1 ± 2.6% of specimens were heterozygotes with 1.1 ± 0.6 heterozygotic inversions per larvae. The number of banding sequences found in populations varied from 7 to 18 per population with an average of 12 ± 3. Inversions were found in all chromosomal arms. Besides inversions, B-chromosome was present in 13 populations, and 5 translocations were found. The total number of banding sequences found in banding sequence pool of Ch.borokensis is 40. Twenty six banding sequences are described for the first time for the species.
