N2  - Cytological and cytochemical observations made on cell strains from ovarian tissue of the saturniid moth Antheraea eucalypti Scott about 120 generations subsequent to their establishment in culture show that a high proportion of the cells are polyploid. Direct chromosome counts indicate that the nuclei range from diploid to at least approximately 128-ploid. The cells of the four strains at present in culture are of three morphologically distinct types differing in the frequency with which they show certain levels of ploidy.
