Polyommatus (Agrodiaetus) karyotypes. Bar =10 µ. a–b P. admetus, sample LR08D109, Greece, MI, n=80. One large bivalent in the centre of the plate can be seen c P. admetus, sample LR08D109, Greece, MII, n=80. One large chromosome in the centre of the plate can be seen d P. ripartii pelopi, sample LR08D249, Greece, MI, n=90. Two large bivalents in the centre of the plate can be seen e P. ripartii pelopi, sample LR08D144, Greece, MI, n=90. Two large bivalents in the centre of the plate can be seen f P. ripartii pelopi, sample LR08D145, Greece, MI, n=90. Two large bivalents in the centre of the plate can be seen g P. ripartii pelopi, sample LR08D92, Greece, MII, n=90. Two large chromosomes in the centre of the plate can be seen h P. nephohiptamenos, sample LR08D494, Northern Greece, MI, n=90. All the bivalents are situated in a plane with the largest elements in the centre of the circular metaphase plate. Bivalents are clearly separated from each other by gaps. Two bivalents are larger than the rest. i P. aroaniensis, sample LR08D102, Greece, MI, n=47.
