    Notes: Abstract Two meiotic genes from natural populations are described. A female meiotic mutation,mei(1)g13, mapped to 17.4 on the X chromosome, causes nondisjunction of all homologs except for the fourth chromosomes. In addition, it reduces recombination by 10% in the homozygotes and causes 18% increased recombination in the heterozygotes. A male meiotic mutation,mei-1223 m144 , is located on the third chromosome. Although this mutation causes nondisjunction of all chromosomes, each chromosome pair exhibits a different nondisjunction frequency. Large variations in the sizes of the premature sperm heads observed in the homozygotes may reflect irregular meiotic pairing and the subsequent abnormal segregation, resulting in aneuploid chromosome complements.

    Notes: Abstract 6-Acetoxy-5-hexadecanolide (Ia) in the oviposition attractant pheromone released from egg apical droplets of the mosquitoCulex pipiens fatigans Wied. is shown to be the (−)-(5R,6S)- enantiomer. Identification was by chromatography of the 6-trifluoroacetoxy derivatives of the natural pheromone and of the synthetic (−)-(5R,6S)- (Ib) and (+)-(5S,6R)- (IIb) enantiomers on a capillary column having a chiral stationary phase comprising a derivative of (1S,3S)-chrysanthemic acid. The synthetic (−)-(5R,6S)- enantiomer (Ia) attracted oviposition of four fold more mosquito egg rafts than the control (P 〈 0.01) whereas for the (5S,6R)- enantiomer (IIa) there was no statistically significant oviposition attraction.
