     Announcement:  Drosophila Isofemale Lines Available
Periodically the Tucson Drosophila  Species Stock Center receives isofemale 
lines of various species that will be maintained for a short
period only and offered for sale to the community.  The stock center has 
received the following collections of isofemale lines and
will  provide them until August.

These lines represent valuable resources from geographic areas that are 
difficult to reach.  Because it is labor intensive to maintain these
strains in addition to the regular collection, the stock center will not 
maintain these isofemale lines after August 15.  Please place orders
by August 1.    Contact Lisa Andrus, Tucson Drosophila Species Stock 
Center, to arrange purchases.   lgandrus at u.arizona.edu
