The karyotypes of four species of Cleridae (Coleoptera): Trichodes favarius (Illiger, 1802), Trichodes quadriguttatus Adams, 1817, Trichodes reichei (Mulsant et Rey, 1863), and Tilloidea transversalis (Charpentier, 1825) were reported for the first time with this study. The chromosome numbers of these four species were determined as 2n = 18, sex chromosome system Xyp, and all chromosomes were metacentric (the except y chromosome). Together with this study, the chromosome data of only 17 species are available in this family. It is remarkable that all of them display the same chromosome number and similar karyotypes. This may make the effect of karyotypical features important in interpreting the evolutionary process of Cleridae.

有关四个方格甲虫（鞘翅目，科科）的第一个细胞遗传学信息。

首次报道了克雷科（Coleoptera）的四个种的核型：毛线虫（Illiger，1802），Trichodes quadriguttatus Adams，1817，rechoi reichei（Mulsant et Rey，1863）和横枝铁线虫（Charilloier，1825）。这项研究。这四个物种的染色体数确定为2n = 18，性染色体系统Xyp，并且所有染色体都是亚中心的（y染色体除外）。与这项研究一起，在这个家族中只有17个物种的染色体数据可用。值得注意的是，它们都显示相同的染色体数和相似的核型。这可能使核型特征的作用在解释科的进化过程中很重要。
