Abstract
Karyotypic analyses of Cardinalis cardinalis (Linnaeus) (Passeriformes: Fringillidae) reveal a diploid number of approximately 84. Three different karyotypes were observed resulting from polymorphism of one macrochromosome pair. It is suggested that the observed polymorphism resulted from a single pericentric inversion. Similarities between karyotypes of this species and those of Zonotrichia albicollis and Junco hyemalis are discussed.
