The authors report that the karyotype formula of Eclipta prostrata is K(2n) = 22 = 16m + 6sm, which belongs to "1A" of stebbins, the chromosome composition based on relative length is 2n = 22 = 10M2 + 12M1, and the total length of the chromosome is 29.3 microns. The chromosome volume of E. prostrata has also been calculated.
