Abstract
Karyotypes of 32 species of North American vespertilionid bats are described. Individual, population, subspecific, specific, and generic karyotype variation are discussed. The use of karyotypes as a taxonomic tool and phylogenetic indicator in bats is discussed.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
