Conventionally stained and C-banded karyotypes of Microtus daghestanicus were studied from Kars village, Turkey. The diploid chromosome number of M. daghestanicus was found as 2n=54, NFa=54. M. daghestanicus karyotype has a pair of small metacentric and 25 pairs of different sizes of acrocentric chromosomes. X chromosome is large submetacentric. Autosomal and X chromosomes were found have to pericentromeric C-band positive characteristics. Additionally, there is a wide interstitial heterochromatin block on the long arm of the X chromosome.
