Abstract
D. azteca extends from California to Guatemala. Only phylogenetically closely related arrangements in the A-chromosome tend to occur in any one geographical region. The data indicate that a gradual spread from North to South, or vice versa, has taken place in the history of the species, and that the gene arrangements in the chromosomes have differentiated hand in hand with the distribution of the species itself.Keywords
