Abstract
The karyotypes of two species of African Colobidae, Colobus vellerosus and C. palliatus, as well that of their hybrid, are described and compared. The two species differ by four pericentric inversions, indicating species divergence a relatively long time ago. Chromosome banding analogies with Papioninae, Cercopithecinae, and man are described. A common origin for Papioninae, Cercopithecinae, and Colobidae is indisputable; but, there are no arguments for considering that a close relationship exists between Colobidae and Hylobatidae as suggested by some authors.
