title: [Cytogenetic study of Cercopithecus wolfi, Cercopithecus erythrotis and a hybrid Cercopithecus ascanius X Cercopithecus pogonias grayi].
abstract: The karyotypes of two species of Cercopithecus, C. wolfi and C. erythrotis, as well as that of a hybrid C. ascanius X C. pogonias grayi, are described and compared. The karyotype of C. erythrotis is similar to that of C. ascanius and C. cephus described previously. The karyotypes of C. wolfi and C. p. grayi differ by a single inversion. The karyotype of the hybrid shows that the two parental species differ by five rearrangements, three fissions and two inversions, an observation in agreement with our previous interpretation.
