Southern blot analysis of 134 species of the genus Drosophila shows that hobo sequences are limited to the melanogaster and montium subgroups of the melanogaster-species group. Of the hobo-bearing species, only D.melanogaster, D.simulans and D.mauritiana contain potentially complete hobos, while D.sechellia contains sequences that probably represent internally deleted hobos.
