  1. Photos of Fruit Flies Photos taken by Drs. Anne Galbraith and Nick Downey (2009)

  2. Female and male (wild-type) Sex comb on male No sex comb on female Dark pigmented spot on rounded abdomen of male; male is also usually smaller than female

  3. Sex comb Found only on the two front legs of males

  4. Dead Dead wild-type male: note the wings that are straight off from the body, a sign of death (there are dead flies in other photos as well, by the way)

  5. apterous sepia (ap se) Wild-type fly with wings and red eyes Mutant fly with no wings and dark brown eyes

  6. apterous sepia (ap se) Wild-type female: larger than the male, pointed abdomen, no black spot Wild-type male: smaller than the female, rounded abdomen, black spot Two male mutants with no wings and dark eyes

  7. black vestigial (b vg) Shriveled up vestigial wing on a female Black body is hard to see in this photo although this part of the fly is quite dark compared to the wild-type male at the top

  8. black vestigial (b vg) Wild-type male Mutant female

  9. brown cinnabar (bwcn) B. Imaged with microscope light off (easier to distinguish cinnabar from wild-type with no light) A. Imaged with microscope light on cinnabar mutant A. B. brown mutant Wild-type (note dark spot in eye)

  10. brown scarlet (bwst) Wild-type female Male Mutant female: note her white eyes When she carries these two different eye mutations

  11. brown vestigial (bw vg) Brown eye on a male (see the sex comb?) compared to wild-type red Wild-type

  12. dumpy sepia (dp se) Two females, mutant on the left, wild-type on the right Short dumpy wings, different shape from wild-type Note that the mutant also has sepia eyes but in this photo, it is hard to see the color difference from wild-type

  13. ebony vestigial (e vg) This is likely a mutant male based on small size and what looks like the black spot on the abdomen, but sex combs would have to be found to be certain Wild-type female Mutant female: Note the vestigial (shriveled) wings And dark body color compared to wild-type

  14. sepia (se) Note the different shades of eye color in sepia mutants; the dark color comes in with age so more newly hatched adults might have a lighter brown color that can be mistaken for wild-type red if you’re not careful

  15. vestigial sepia (vg se) Wild-type female Two mutant females Wild-type male: Note sex comb on front leg

  16. white vestigial (w vg) Mutant male

  17. white vestigial (w vg) Wild-type female Mutant male Wild-type male Mutant female

  18. Wild-type antenna Compared to Antennapedia (Antp) which we didn’t get a photo of yet

  19. yellow Bar (y Bar) Wild-type female Note lighter body color of mutants compared to wild-type Sex comb on wild-type male Bar-shaped eye Sex comb on mutant male

  20. yellow (y) Mutant (lighter colored) female Wild-type male Mutant male Wild-type female

  21. yellow white miniature (y w m) Mutants, likely males but need to Find sex combs to be certain: Note white eyes, lighter color, and tiny size Sex comb on wild-type male Wild-type female
