        Ocellus colour: colourless. Testis colour: colourless. Malpighian tubule colour: pigmented. Eye colour: yellow. Eye colour: wsp1/we59 females have uniformly coloured eyes which are darker than either homozygous wsp1 or homozygous we59 females. Eye colour: white, in homozygous z1 we59 females. Eye colour: yellow, in z1/z1 we59/+ females. Eye colour: lighter than z+ we59 males in z1 we59 males.

        (Dalby and O'Hare, 1991)

        Eye colour: wsp1/we59 flies have orange-brown eyes, which darken with age.

        (Pastink et al., 1987)

        Eye colour: when heterozygous with wsp1 orange-brown at eclosion; mottling almost gone after first day; eyes slowly darken.
