Abstract

Esmaeili, H.R., Piravar, Z. and Ebrahimi, M. 2006. Karyological analysis of Iranian cichlid fish, Iranocichla hormuzensis Coad, 1982 (Perciformes, Cichlidae) from southern Iran. J. Appl. Anim. Res., 30: 77–79. The diploid chromosome number of Iranocichla hormuzensis Coad, 1982 was 2n=44, comprising 25 submetacentric,18 subtelocentric and 1 metacentric. The arm number was 70. Detailed karyotypes of this endemic cichlid fish of southern Iran may confirm its relationship to Tristramella.
