Abstract

SUMMARYKaryotypes of nine species of Puerto Rican bats are described. In most cases karyotypes of these forms do not vary from their mainland relatives. Possible phylogenetic relationships of Stenoderma, Brachyphylla, Erophylla and Monophyllus are discussed in light of these chromosomal data.
