Abstract

This research aims to study the chromosome and meiotic division of Bluish-green Rice Grasshopper (Hieroglyphus banian). The specimens were collected in Udon Thani province. Chromosomal preparation was performed directly from their testes. Conventional staining by Giemsa 20 % (v/v) and Ag-NOR staining were applied on the metaphase chromosomes. Chromosome counting was performed on metaphase cells under a light microscope. The result reveals that the male H. banian has diploid (2n) chromosome number of 23, with the fundamental number of 23. All of chromosomes have found to be telocentric chromosomes which including 22 autosome and one sex-chromosome. The meiotic study has confirmed and identified the diploid number and sex chromosome. The karyotype formula of this species could be deduced as 2n(23) = 22t + sex-chromosome (X0).
