Abstract

Lizards belonging to the species Lacerta sicula, L. oxycerihala, and L. mellisellensis from numerous Adriatic Islands and from adjacent mainland populations show no variation in karyotype. All are characterized by the diploid number 2n - 3S consisting of 36 acrocentric macrochromosomes and 2 acroce trie microchromosomes.
