The works take the form of a 4 page folder and a short (8 frame) 35mm film strip, the contents of which are explained in the text folder. One of the units deals with the Drosophila. I am looking for the following photos which would be used on a non-exclusive, one-time basis: 1. The Male Drosophila Fly - Top View showing the Haltares 2. Female Drosophila Fly - Top View 3. Drosophila Eggs 4. Drosophila Mature larva 5. Drosophila Pupa 6. Dropsphila Chromosopmes (showing 4 pairs in metaphase- Male fly) 7. Drosophila Salivary gland chromosopmes Showing striped giant chromosomes. 8. Drosophila Head with normal eyes 9. Drosophila Head with double bar eyes 10. Drosophila Chromosomes similar to 6 above without "Y" chromosome (XO type) Can you provide any of the above or similar alternates or suggest where I might be able to obtain them ? If there is a charge for use of the pictures, please advise in your reply. Please send all pictures (which, of course, will be returned after they are copied) along with description of magnification and any special points of interest noted to me at : 10 Harrow Lane Old Bethpage, NY 11804 USA I can use color or black and white transparancies (35mm or larger) or good quality glossy prints. Thank you for your assistance. Sincerely. Aaron Becker --- .
