Gg. Boeskorov et Aa. Danilkin, KARYOTYPE AND TAXONOMIC STATUS OF SIBERIAN ROE DEER (CAPREOLUS-PYRARGUS, CERVIDAE) IN YAKUTIA, Zoologiceskij zurnal, 77(9), 1998, pp. 1080-1083
A set of chromosomes in Siberian roe deer includes 5-7 B-chromosomes:
2n = 70 + (5-7). Morphometric parameters of the Yakutian roe deer popu
lation are more similar to the Tien Shanian subspecies, Capreolus pyra
rgus tianschanicus. Yakutia seems to be an area where the two subspeci
es ranges overlap.
