Karyotypes of Three Species of Rats from Hong Kong and Thailand (Muridae, genus Rattus Fischer)

The chromosomes of wild rats are poorly investigated. Most studies have been confined to Rattus norvegicus albino, most recently reviewed by Robinson (1965). Makino (1942, 1943) studied the chromosomes of 5 species of Asiatic rats with old testis-section methods-R. norvegicus, R. rattus, R. losea,...
