Morphology of the embryonic stages of the viviparous scorpion, Heterometrus fulvipes: A photographic study.

abstract：:Bristle positions in two rows of bristles on the basitarsus of the second leg of the fruitfly Drosophila melanogaster were analyzed in order to determine the accuracy of bristle placement within these rows. Within each row the positions of the two terminal bristles were found to be approximately equally variable, and ...
