Thus, this study aimed to expand knowledge of the karyotypic composition of <i>Potamotrygon motoro</i> from different locations of the Central Amazon using Fluorescence in situ Hybridization to investigate the distribution of ribosomal DNAs (rDNA) and microsatellites sequences (SSRs). In addition, we used the mitochondrial DNA cytochrome oxidase subunit I (mtDNA COI) to perform neighbor-joining analysis to investigate the relationships among the individuals sampled. In our study, <i>Potamotrygon motoro</i> presented 2n = 66 chromosomes, with 18m + 12sm + 10st + 26a and heterochromatic blocks on centromeric region of all chromosomes. The 18S rDNA is present in three chromosomal pairs and 5S rDNA is located in the pair 16, which is a feature shared among freshwater stingray species. Regarding the mapping of SSRs, dinucleotide sequences showed a greater number of sites, usually on terminal regions of chromosomal pairs, with an accumulation throughout the long arms of the pair 17.
