P{wAR} insertion within unk at about position -36kb on the hh cnc map within the second intron of unk. Original insertion position at -31kb (FBrf0054619) is incorrect.
P{wAR} insertion at position -31kb, within unk, of the hh cnc map.

Heterozygotes with unkR16 exhibit the 'unkempt' cuticular defects: roughened eyes, splayed wings and crossed scutellar bristles.
Failure head involution.
Originally described in Levis et al., Science 229:558--561 .
Loss of the P{wAR} element demonstrates the insertion is the cause of the lethal phenotype.
