three facets. The gene concerned is named ultra-bar, and shows a marked dominance over 

 both bar and full-eye, so that the Fi generation has eyes almost as small as those of ultra-bar. 

 Crossing-over tests seem to show that ultra-bar is an allelomorph of bar. Author calls atten- 

 tion to this evidence of mutation in a gene during selection, but thinks the direction of muta- 

 tion probably not significant inasmuch as mutations toward full-eye have also occurred. —
