Abstract
The large heterochromatic chromosome of Drosophila nasutoides reveals distinctive C- and Q-bands. The regions which are negative in C-banding appear positive in Q-banding. The isochromosomic nature of this chromosome and the locality of the satellite DNAs in this chromosome are discussed with respect to these banding patterns.Keywords
