 Abstract: Seven groups of Drosophila mutants are described in which movement detection is disturbed at some neuronal level. In several of the mutants the ability to see at low light intensities is lost, in others contrast transfer is impaired. Some respond only to movement from back to front but not to movement from front to back. With one exception the mutants seem to have electrophysiological defects in the lamina. These preliminary data show that by mutations the fly’s visual system can be broken down into its constituents.
