Abstract
The chromosome number and karyotype of two wasp species of the genusPolistes were determined by a technique involving colchicine and sodium citrate pre-treatment, which permitted a more precise chromosome identification. The speciesPolistes (Aphanilopterus) simillimus, with n=28, 2n=56 chromosomes, andPolistes (Aphanilopterus) versicolor versicolor, with n=31, 2n=62 chromosomes, showed sharply characteristic individual karyotypes.
