a
Pigmentation data are a summary of personal observations by M. D. Drapeau and P. K. Geyer, the primary references in Table 1, Lindsley and Zimm (1992), and FlyBase.
b
Wing, body, bristles, aristae, tarsal claws, and sex combs are adult pigmented structures.
c
“+/−” indicates that the pigmentation is neither completely wild type (dark) nor mutant (yellow), but rather intermediate.
d
The male mating success data are from this report.
