Abstract
The class Insecta has provided some of the classical material for studies in genetics and cytogenetics. The availability of cells in culture from this class adds a new dimension to the possibilities available for study. The present paper describe various cytogenetic aspects of three cell lines derived from the class Insecta. One from the order Lepidoptera is from the moth, Antheraea eucalypti; the other two, from the order Diptera, were derived from two species of mosquito, Aedes albopictus and A. aegypti.
