Cytogenetic analysis of four argentinean populations of Artemia (Crustacea Branchipoda: Anostraca)

Artemia brine shrimps inhabit hypersaline ecosystems all over the world except Antarctica. In South America two bisexual diploid species are encountered: Artemia franciscana Kellogg distributed along America and Artemia persimilis Piccinelli and Prosdocimi restricted to Argentina and a few Chilean l...

description Artemia brine shrimps inhabit hypersaline ecosystems all over the world except Antarctica. In South America two bisexual diploid species are encountered: Artemia franciscana Kellogg distributed along America and Artemia persimilis Piccinelli and Prosdocimi restricted to Argentina and a few Chilean localities.

In the present work four new Argentinean populations of Artemia have been cytogenetically analyzed by conventional staining, silver staining, and C and DAPI banding.
