Abstract
Studies of phototactic behaviour of the flesh fly have demonstrated that some illuminated visual patterns can be discriminated (Mimura 1981 b). It was further suggested that the receptive field patterns of the photoreceptors contribute to pattern discrimination (Mimura 1981a). On the basis of the phototactic choice behaviour in some of the photoreceptor mutants ofDrosophila melanogaster, this study was conducted to identify which photoreceptors among R1 to R8 subserve the pattern discrimination.
