Review of studies on the chromosome sets of Palaearctic mammals carried out by Russian karyologists and an important contribution to improving the taxonomy of mammals were made for the first time. For many mammal species, the process of speciation was associated with variability in the number and morphology of the chromosomes; therefore, the karyotypes are often used as diagnostic peculiarities of morphologically similar cryptic species (sibling species). The prospects for cytogenetic studies in the field of speciation
