Abstract

This paper describes a fourth chromosome race of P. marmoratus. Specimens from this race have 2n = 32 chromosomes and occur in an isolated pocket in the south-west of Western Australia. It is believed that this race has been derived from the 2n = 34 form by an additional chromosome fusion.
