| Emphorini | Melitoma segmentaria | Viçosa, Minas Gerais | Brazil | 15 | 30 | 2k= 28pseudo-acrocentric + 2metacentric | C-banding, Ag-NOR | DAPI/CMA3 | Cristiano et al. 2014 |
Chromosome classification: Levan et al. (1964): metacentric (m), submetacentric (sm), subtelocentric (st), or acrocentric (a). Imai (1991): metacentric (M) or acrocentric (A), with a variety of forms depending on the position of the heterochromatin on the karyotype.
