Revised karyotype of Alouatta caraya (Primates: Platyrrhini) based on synaptonemal complex and banding analyses

Most primates studied have the usual XX/XY sex-chromosome system. However, exceptions to this rule among howler monkeys have been suggested by several authors. Recently a quadrivalent was discovered in male meiosis of Alouatta caraya and it was established that this species has an X1X2Y1Y2 sex chrom...
