Abstract
This study reports the results of different staining techniques on the chromosomes of two Poecilia formosa lineages, providing evidence of t wo additional nucleolus organizer region (NOR) chromosomal clones in t his gynogenetic fish. A comparative analysis of chromosomal clones det ected in the Amazon molly, along with their frequency and distribution in different collecting sites, is also presented, and clonal heteroge neity resulting from chromosome changes is discussed.
