Three new sex-linked mutants in Culex tarsalis and their relationships in linkage group I.
Three sex-linked mutants are described for the mosquito, Culex tarsalis, Charcoal, char, and ebony, eb, affect body-scale pigment in the adult; wide-wing, ww, gives abnormal wing size and affects the palps in adults. A preliminary map of linkage group I is offered from recombination data involving the sex-linked mutants.
