Consigliere, R. Stanyon, U. Koehler, G. Agoramoorthy, J. Wienberg] We hybridized whole human chromosome-specific DNA libraries to chromosomes of two supposed subspecies ofAlouatta seniculus: Alouatta seniculus sara andAlouatta seniculus arctoidea. The number of hybridization signals per haploid set is 42 inA. s. sara and 43 inA. s. arctoidea; the two karyotypes differ by at least 16 chromosomal rearrangements, including numerous translocations. An unusual sex chromosome system is shared by both taxa. The sex chromosome system results from a Y translocation with a chromosome homologous to parts of human chromosome 3/15 and can be described as X1X2Y1Y2/X1X1X2X2 (male/female). Both red howlers also have microchromosomes, a highly unusual karyological trait not found in other higher primates. These microchromosomes are not hybridized by any human chromosome paint and therefore are probably composed of repetitive DNA. It is well known that New World monkeys have high karyological variability. It is probable that molecular cytogenetic analyses including chromosome painting will permit an accurate reconstruction of the phylogeny of these monkeys and help establish the ancestral karyotype for higher primates.
