A continuous cell line from the cupreous chafer, Anomala cuprea Hope (Insecta, Coleoptera, Scarabaeidae).
A continuous cell line was obtained from the culture of embryonic cells of the cupreous chafer, Anomala cuprea Hope. The cells showed substrate-dependent growth and formed loose networks. Population doubling time was about 4.5 d. The mode of chromosome number was about 32 (4n). The cell line was designated FRI-AnCu-35.
