By means of differential staining with the Romanovsky - Gimsa dye the distribution of G-bands was studied in chromosomes of bone marrow cells and of cultured peripheral blood lymphocytes in Papio hamadryas. All the homologous chromosome pairs were identified. It was shown, as compared Papio hamadryas karyotypes with that of Macaca mulatta, that patterns of most chromosomes differentiation were similar. Certain differences between these species were observed in the character of differentiation of chromosomes 1 and 5 and also in parameters of chromosomes 2 and 21 (X).
