A chromosomal banding study was carried out on Propithecus verreauxi verreauxi, P. verreauxi deckeni, and Avahi laniger laniger. Comparison of their karyotypes with those of Microcebus murinus and Lemur fulvus led to reconstruction of the ancestral Lemuriform karyotype and a determination that the branch leading to the Indridae was isolated very early, before the separation of the Lemuridae from the Cheirogaleidae. The karyotype of Avahi remained highly ancestral, whereas that of P. verreauxi was considerably modified, chiefly by Robersonian translocations.
对维氏冕狐猴指名亚种、维氏冕狐猴德氏亚种和懒狐猴指名亚种进行了染色体带型研究。将它们的核型与小鼠狐猴和褐美狐猴的核型进行比较，从而重建了狐猴型祖先核型，并确定通向大狐猴科的分支在狐猴科与鼠狐猴科分离之前很早就已隔离。懒狐猴的核型仍然高度保留祖先特征，而维氏冕狐猴的核型则有相当大的改变，主要是通过罗伯逊易位。
