Cytogenetics of species of the families Pimelodidae and Rhamdiidae (Siluriformes)
Only 33 species among about 300 belonging to the families Pimelodidae and Rhamdiidae have been studied cytogenetically. The diploid number varies from 2n = 46 to 2n = 63 chromosomes, with the karyotypes often being of the meta/submetacentric type. As a result, there is generally a very elevated fundamental number.
