Journal Article
Chromosome Banding Patterns of Treefrogs (Hylidae) of the Eastern United States
1982
Overview
Chromosomes from 12 species of treefrogs were treated with trypsin and stained with Giemsa stain (G-banded). Banded karyotypes were compared within and between species. Based on this analysis, three species groups were discerned: the Pseudacris triseriata group, consisting of P. t. feriarum, P. brimleyi, P. ornata and H. crucifer; the Hyla gratiosa group, consisting of H. gratiosa, H. squirella, H. cinerea; and the Hyla chrysoscelis group, consisting of H. andersoni, H. chrysoscelis (two chromosome morphs), H. versicolor, H. avivoca and H. femoralis. These groupings generally agree with groupings from morphological, osteological, electrophoretic, immunological and hybridization studies. Chromosome inversions and translocations have played a role in chromosome evolution of the species examined. Populations of H. chrysoscelis have probably been involved in the origin of the tetraploid species H. versicolor. Two chromosome polymorphisms were discovered in the populations of H. chrysoscelis studied.
