71_James_et_al_1997_Thorax_length_and_wing_traits

This data file contains means and 95% confidence limits for thorax length (mm), wing area (mm2), cell area (µm2) and cell number (x103) for females and males of 20 Drosophila melanogaster populations collected in 1993. Traits were measured for wild caught flies and laboratory reared flies after 7 and 9 months of captivity (Fig. 1). Note longitudes in data are approximate.
