Abstract
Chromosome analysis of nine species ofHaemanthus (2n = 16) and four species ofScadoxus (2n = 18), using conventional stains, Quinacrine fluorescence and C-banding, has shown that the two genera do not possess significant amounts of constitutive heterochromatin. The two genera are closely related and differ in respect of a translocation which has resulted in the dysploid reduction in chromosome number from 2n = 18 inScadoxus to 2n = 16 inHaemanthus.
