Intraspecific variations of heterochromatic material in karyotypes of Myotis species. specimen – identification number (ID) of specimen. The numbers before ID (1, 4, 5) indicate sampling localities, the abbreviations see in Table 1. Symbols: o – totally euchromatic chromosomes, • – totally heterochromatic chromosomes. + – small heterochromatic band in vicinity of the centromere on both homologues in pair, ++ – large heterochromatic band in vicinity of the centromere on both homologues in pair, x/xx – heteromorphic heterochromatic bands in vicinity of the centromere: small and absent / large and small or absent. tel – heterochromatic segment in vicinity of the telomere, int – interstitial heterochromatic band, arm – heterochromatic secondary arm. Bold Italic – heteromorphic chromosomal pair. The abbreviations see in Table 1.
