C.bands and NORs on chromosomes in four species of the genus Trechus Clairv. ( Coleoptera, Carabidae )
نویسنده
چکیده
C-banding pattern and Ag-NORs on chromosomes of Trechus latus, T pilisensis T pulchellus, and T quadristriatus are presented. T pulchellus has a paracentromeric C-band similar in size on all chromosomes. T latus has euchromatic the X chromosome but all autosomes have a paracentromeric C-positive band. In the karyoty}l' of T quadristriatus the 1st pair of autosomes is euchromatic while the autosomes have a paracentromeric C band. T pilisensis has a constitutive heterochromatic segment in a paracentromeric position on all chromosomes and in addition the terminal C-band on the 1st pair of autosomes. Males of the examined species have the same pattern of silver precipitation during spermatogenesis. In the mitotic stages, from the prophase to the prometaphase stage one silver dot on the end of two autosomes is visible. In prophase I (to diakinesis) one active NOR is observed.

The third fossil species of the genus Trechus Clairville, 1806 is described from Baltic amber: Trechus exhibitorius sp. n. Details of external and internal morphology were analysed using X-ray micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) and important diagnostic features of the internal male genital sac (endophallus) are described in detail for the first time in a fossil ground beetle. Based on these d...

The first reliably identified Trechini beetle species from Baltic amber, Trechus balticus sp. n., is described. This new fossil species is most similar to extant species of the Palaearctic Trechus sensu stricto, as well as to the Nearctic Microtrechus Jeannel, 1927. Since the fossil specimen is a female and some important character states cannot be investigated, its true systematic position wit...
