β¦ Synopsis
In three previous papers ('05, '06, '08) the chromosomes of several species of Coleoptera have been described and figured, and the riile of the heterochromosomes in sex determination discussed. The following pages are a further contribution to our knowledge of the character and behavior of the heterochromosomes, and of the methods of synapsis in this order of insects.
The methods used in handling the material have been the same as in previous work: fixation with Gilson's mercuro-nitric, Flemming's chromo-aceto-osmic, and Hermann's platino-acetoosmic fluids, and staining with iron haematoxylin or thionin. The aceto-carmine method has been used in testing fresh material, and as a check on the section method.

Trisomy 15 is the most common chromosomal aberration in murine T-cell lymphomas. The relevant chromosomal region responsible for the growth advantage of the 15-trisomic cell has not been defined. In order to map this region, we have induced thymic lymphomas by chemical carcinogens (DMBA or MNU) in m
