We proposed a standardized G‐banded idiogram (about 400 bands) for Cebus capucinus and established the complete late replication sequence for about 200 bands. Many chromosomes thought to be homologous on the basis of R‐banding and gene mapping showed similar replication sequences to human and macaque chromosomes. Other supposed homologs had no good correspondence. Asynchrony was observed in some bands and a few of these are apparently evolutionarily conserved. A full understanding of the evolution of chromosome replication sequences can only be obtained when secure chromosomal homology has been established on a molecular DNA level; preferably with in situ suppression CISS hybridization of human chromosomal libraries. © 1992 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
