C-banding patterns in chromosomes of Paederius rubrothoracicus carpathicola Scheerpetz 1957 (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae: Paederinae).
An analysis was made of the C-banded karyotype of Paederius rubrothoracicus carpathicola Scheerp. The result indicates that the chromosome number is 2n = 36 and n Male = 17 + Xyp. The examined karyotype shows a paracentromeric position of constitutive heterochromatin in all autosomes. The y chromosome is wholly euchromatic.
