WILD TYPE STOCKS
##
#
Austin
  Started at the University of Texas before 1929.
  Viability and fertility good.
#
Canton-S:  Canton-Special
  Derived from wild flies collected in Canton, Ohio.
  Selected by Bridges.  Contains a recessive for
  multiple thoracic and scutellar bristles, which
  overlaps wild type in most flies but appears
  sporadically in strains partly derived from
  Canton-S.  Bridges found that salivary chromosomes
  were normal.
#
Lausanne-S:  Lausanne-Special
  Stock derived from wild flies collected in 1938 by
  Bridges at Lausanne, Wisconsin.  Has short posterior
  scutellar bristles.  According to Bridges, salivary
  chromosomes normal.
#
Oregon-R
  Stock derived from wild flies collected in 1925 or
  earlier by D. E. Lancefield at Roseburg, Oregon.
  Stock contains a slight ebony allele, a branching of
  the posterior crossvein (in chromosome 2R),
  and an occasional scooped wing.  Salivary
  chromosomes homozygous for Df(2R)Ore-R.
#
Oregon-R-C
  Selected by Bridges in 1938 from Oregon-R.  Body
  color not so dark as that of Oregon-R.  Homozygous
  for Df(2R)Ore-R.
#
Samarkand
  Stock derived from wild flies captured in 1936 at
  Samarkand, Uzbek Republic in Asiatic USSR
  [Dubinin, Sokoloff, and Tiniakov, 1937, Biol. Zh. (Moscow)
  6:  1007-54].  Original stock contained a
  low frequency of inversions in 3R; chromosomes
  probably are now all of standard sequence.  Ives
  reports that females of his lines of Samarkand are
  distinguishable from Oregon-R females in that they
  have no faint trident on the thorax and that there is
  always a well-defined black band on seventh
  (most-posterior) dorsolateral abdominal segment.
#
Stephenville
  Derived from wild flies captured at Stephenville,
  Texas in 1935.  Salivary chromosomes probably
  normal.  Fertility and viability good.
#
Swedish-b
  Stock established by Bridges from flies collected
  near Stockholm in 1923.  Slight abnormality of
  abdominal banding and position of scutellar
  bristles.  Salivary chromosomes homozygous for
  Df(2R)Sw-R.
#
Swedish-c
  Derived by Bridges from Swedish-b in 1938.  Body
  color lighter than that of Swedish-b.  Homozygous
  for deficiencies in tips of 2L and 2R.
#
Urbana-S:  Urbana-Special
  Selected by Bridges from flies collected at Urbana,
  Illinois.  Body color somewhat lighter than standard
  wild type.  Salivary chromosomes normal.
