Notice for 3rd Lecture class for the classification of Drosophila
The lecture classes for the classification of Drosophila for beginners were held in November 2002 and August 2003.
We would like to take this opportunity to announce that we will organize the advanced course for those who attended the 1st or 2nd workshop or experienced classification of Drosophila. We welcome your participation. Thank you.
Purpose of this lecture class: To classify more than 30 species of Family Drosophilidae found in Japan.
If you are interested in the specific species and would like to learn how to classify their allied species intensively, please let us know when you apply. We will make an arrangement for you as much as possible.
Please find out the species and their affinity that are used in the workshop on the website of Drosophila Genetic Resource Center:
