BOW. In an F2 generation from rudimentary males by wild females there appeared, August 15, 1912, a single male whose wings instead of being flat were turned down over the abdomen (fig. c). The curvature was uniform throughout the length of the wing. A previous mutation, arc, of this same type had been found to be a recessive character in the second group. The new mutation, bow, is less extreme than arc and is more variable in the amount of curvature. When the bow male was mated to wild females the offspring had straight FIG. C.—Bow wing.
