Maybe he did see it too, since he has now acted on suggestion 2) In article <1994Jan25.094834.1@science.adelaide.edu.au> you write: >Greetings, > can anyone help me place the Drosophila species: D. willistoni, D. >saltans and D. pseudo-obscura in the Drosophila phylogenetic tree (references >if possible) > >thanks in advance >Daniel kortschak > Two suggestions: 1) Use a gopher client or anonymous ftp to FlyBase at ftp.bio.indiana.edu. You will find a file called phylogeny in flybase/allied-data that might contain information of interest. 2) Post your question in the bionet.drosophila news group Wayne Rindone Technical Director, FlyBase rindone@morgan.harvard.edu .
