Abstract
We prove a modulo invariance for the number of Klein-bottle leaves in taut foliations. Given two smooth cooriented taut foliations, assume that every Klein-bottle leaf has nontrivial linear holonomy, and assume that the two foliations can be smoothly deformed to each other through taut foliations. We prove that the numbers of Klein-bottle leaves in these two foliations must have the same parity.
