Abstract
We summarize, and add to, the current knowledge of the chromosome numbers of 71 species of leaf beetles (Chrysomelidae) from Puerto Rico (41% of the total believed to be reported for the island), including 30 endemic species and subspecies. Meiograms for representative taxa are included.Downloads
