A population of the Australian species C. pinguis possesses 36 metacentric chromosomes that are easy to assemble in six groups of six elements each. This suggests a hexaploid condition as do the karyometric results. Meiosis is normal in both germ lines and the development appears to be amphimictic.</p>
