Abstract
A considerable amount of information is now available on the karyology of the marine mammals, Pinnipedia and Cetacea. This information emanates both from banded and unbanded karyotypes. A majority of the pinnipeds has now been investigated karyologically, and representatives of all extant cetacean families have also been studied. The karyotype stability among the marine mammals has been stressed earlier, and the present discussion emphasizes this point further.Mesh:
