Abstract

Chromosomes of diplommatinid snails have been studied for 14 species, and all species studied have a diploid chromosome number of 2n=26 (Ieyama & Tada, 1991, Ieyama, et al., 1993, Ogaito & Ieyama, 1997). Nuclear DNA contents reported for 18 species in Diplommatinidae range from 3.87 pg to 16.08 pg in diploid cells (Ieyama & Tada, 1991, Ieyama, et al., 1993, Ogaito & Ieyama, 1997). Ogaito and Ieyama (1997) used the DNA amount as circumstantial evidence in description of a new species. We studied the chromosomes and nuclear DNA contents of two subspecies, Diplommatina (Sinica) kiiensis kiiensis and D. (S.) kiiensis ssp. This paper reports the karyotypes and nuclear DNA contents of these two subspecies.
