Abstract
Chromosomes of Acanthocephalus lucii (Muller, 1776) were observed usin g conventional staining techniques. The number of chromosomes in femal es and in their developing eggs (2n = 8) as well as the mean (L-a) and relative length (L-r) of the chromosomes and the localization of the centromere (I-c) were determined. Peculiarities in the behaviour of th e chromosomes are also described.
