Abstract
A cytogenetic investigation was carried out on specimens of Liza ramada, a mugilid species common in the Mediterranean sea. The analysis of chromosomes was performed through Ag-staining, C-banding, chromomycin A3 and DAPI staining, and fluorescent in situ hybridization with ribosomal genes. The results obtained are discussed with respect to cytotaxonomic implications and to the features of NORs.
