The mutant Crumpled is described, and the results of inheritance and linkage studies reported. The Crumpled phenotype is conditioned by a dominant allele at a single locus. The homozygous mutant genotype was assigned the gene symbols Crp Crp . Heterozygous Crumpled has an intermediate mutant phenotype. Linkage analysis established that Crumpled was independent of the marker loci cu, v 1 , gl 1 , fg, cl 1 , L 0 , R 1 , H 2 R 2 , Y 1 , P 1 , Lc 1 N , and Lg .
