Congenital anomalies in Lemur variegatus.
In a colony of black and white ruffed lemurs, Lemur (Varecia) variegatus subsp., similar congenital anomalies were found in successive years. Four malformed infants had skull defects, scoliosis, kinked tails, internal anomalies as well as reduced birth weights. The derived from one male and two females whose phenotypes are normal except for the kinked tail of the male. The possible causes including modes of inheritance are considered.

Karyotype abnormalities in two primate species, Pygathrix nemaeus and Lemur coronatus.
The karyotypes of 7 douc langurs (Pygathrix nemaeus) and 3 crowned lemurs (Lemur coronatus) were examined. Abnormalities in 23.5% of the karyotypes of 1 male douc langur were associated with a history of fathering stillborns and abortuses (38%). Karyotype analysis of an apparently normal female lemur revealed three differing karyotypes, one normal and two abnormal.

Chromosomal analysis of the pygmy chimpanzee (Pan paniscus) with a comparison to man.
The karyotype of Pan paniscus is reexamined by G-banding and examined for the first time by C-banding. In addition, examination of the chromosomes by the use of the fluorochromes adreamycine and 33258 Hoechst is undertaken. C-banding showed a surprising pattern with numerous terminal C-bands, as interstitial C-band, and several chromosomes lacking C-bands. Polymorphic conditions for C-bands are also identified involving several pairs. In a comparison to the chromosomes of man, G-banding revealed two pericentric inversions not previously observed. Only chromosome pairs No. 9,11,12 and the X are similar to man's by all techniques employed.

A comparison of the reproductive cycle of three species of Lemur.
The duration of the luteal phase and the 'proestrus' phase in three species of lemurs (Lemur macaco, Lemur catta, and Lemur variegatus) was determined by serum progesterone measurement. Total immunoreactive estrogens were measured and remained below 0.20 ng/ml except for an apparent peak of short duration during estrus. Circulating testosterone levels in males confirm previously described seasonal gonadal function. The reproductive cycle of the female lemur is discussed and compared to the cycles of estrous and menstrual animals.

Q-band polymorphism in a family of pygmy chimpanzees (Pan paniscus).
A polymorphic condition for the Q-band intense region of chromosome number 22 is identified in the pygmy chimpanzee (Pan paniscus). This polymorphism allows us to trace the pattern of inheritance of a number 22 chromosome in a family of pygmy chimpanzees. Previous Q-band findings are verified.

Chromosomes of the tan-handed titi (Callicebus torquatus, Hoffmannsegg, 1807).
Two new specimens of Calicebus torquatus confirm the previously reported unusually low diploid number of 2n = 20. Banding studies and radioautography identify the X chromosome and compare the karyotype with that of Callicebus moloch cupreus. The latter species has considerably less C-banded heterochromatin. A comparison of Giemsa bands establishes only few comparable chromosome segments.
