Some first instar larvae die before any growth, those that survive to second instar grow slowly and attain only half full size before dying. Mosaic analysis demonstrates mutant phenotype is autonomous. Individuals survive when Dp(1;4)wm65g, Dp(1;3)wm49a or Dp(1;3)N264-58 is present. Surviving males have missing orbital, ocellar and vertical bristles and thickened wing veins, males are fertile.
Mutant tissue does not survive in gynandromorphs (Shannon, Kaufman, Shen and Judd, 1972).
