Abstract;Somatic chromosomes of the Taiwanese Chrysanthemum sensu lato with non-white colored ray-fiorets were studied: The dwarf Ajania pacifica (Nakai) Bremer et Humphries had the chromosome number of 2n=81, that was different from the previous counts. Crossostephium chinense (L.) Makino showed much smaller chromosomes (2n=18; diploid) than the diploid Dendranthema (2n=18) did. Dendranthema arisanense (Hayata) Ling et Shih and D. lavandulifolia (Fisch. ex Trautv.) Ling et Shih var. tomentellum (Hand.-Mazz.) Ling et Shih had the chromosome number of 2n=18. Dendranthema indica (L.) Des Moul. in Taiwan showed the chromosome number of 2n=36, that was the same to that in Japan and China. Karyotypes of the dwarf Ajania pacifica, Crossostephium chinense and Dendranthema lavandulifolia var. tomentellum were documented here for the first time. (author abst.)
