Photoreceptor rhabdomeres appear twisted, branched and fused to each other in homozygous flies. Some rhabdomeres do not reach the apical surface of the retina. A considerable fraction of the rhabdomeres fall beneath the fenestrated membrane (which in wild type forms a clear boundary between the retina and brain). The positions of the photoreceptors are aberrant in homozygous ommatidia; the R7 and R8 photoreceptors appear in the same tangential cross section in mutant flies (this is never seen in wild type). The rhabdomeres of R2 and R3 are fused to each other, although the boundary between them can still be seen. The arrangement of microvilli is normal in all rhabdomeres except the R1 and R4 rhabdomeres which show a slight disturbance.
Rough eye phenotype; ommatidia have variable size and shape (rhabdomeres are of variable number and have distorted shapes in unusual positions in the ommatidia), ommatidial fusions are also exhibited. In pupal retina the alignment of ommatidial rows is disrupted, photoreceptors occupy unusual positions probably because the mutant discs fail to form a correct mesh of pigment cells that shape ommatidia into regular hexagonal structures. Ommatidia may also have an additional cone cell or be missing 1-3 cone cells.
Homozygotes display a severe rough eye phenotype, facets have irregular size and shape and two or three adjacent ommatidia are fused. Ommatidia have irregular number of cone cells and extra primary pigment cells. Some homozygotes have extra macrochaetae on the head, notum, humerus and/or scutellum. Hemizygotes show wing phenotypes of a notched blade and loss of crossvein. Transheterozygotes cnomis1/cno2 and cnomis1/cno3 have a roughened eye structure.

The addition of cnomis1/cnomis1 has no effect on a7/Df(2R)aEX1 flies.
hep1 and bsk2 dominantly enhance the cnomis1/cno3 phenotype; hep1/+; cnomis1/cno3 and bsk2/+; cnomis1/cno3 embryos have a dorsal open phenotype. pydtam cnomis1 double heterozygotes die as embryos with a dorsal open phenotype. The leading edge cells show little elongation during stage 15 (at or slightly before completion of dorsal closure).
Double mutants with sca1 and with Nspl-1 always have rumpled wings curved downwards, rough eye phenotype and extra bristles. cnomis1 causes dominant suppression of NAx-1 wing vein gaps, mutant phenotype is fully recovered in cnomis1 homozygotes. Individuals in combination with mys11 exhibit incomplete lethality, few escapers have normal wings or an extra wing vein phenotype.
Excision of the P{BmΔ-w} element reverts the mutant phenotype to wild type.
