This is the first karyotype description for

Rhinolophus lepidus,

which is widely distributed in Asia from Afghanistan to China, as well as in Sumatra [26]. The karyotype of R. lepidus from Hainan Island was 2n = 62 and FN = 60 (Fig. 1), consisting of 30 medium-sized to small acrocentric autosomal pairs, a large subtelocentric X chromosome, and a small acrocentric Y chromosome. Secondary constrictions were detected adjacent to one pair of medium-sized acrocentric chromosomes.
