Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Homozygous ct46l flies only lose a few bristles at the wing tip.

Adult wing margin has gaps at the tip.

Distal edges of wings scalloped in area between L3 and L4 and, occasionally, lateral surface of wing toward L5 scalloped. Abdomen, antenna, arista, and eye effects of ct absent. Classification of males and females reliable. More extreme than ctn and more viable than ct6. ct46l/ct6 flies have slightly nicked wing tips resembling ctn. RK1.
