Abstract
Photographic maps of the five chromosomes of Drosophila persimills are shown. Photographs of the principal gene arrangements of the third chromosome of D. persimills are given in their homozygous and heterozygous configurations. A key to these is presented, and an updated phylogeny is shown. How to distinguish D. persimills chromosomes from those of D. pseudoobscura is discussed, and photographs illustrating the differences are presented.
