Abstract
Three new eye colour mutants, scarlet eye (wsca), red-spotted eye (prs) and pigmentless eye (p) were isolated in the malaria vector, Anopheles stephensi. Genetic analysis revealed that all three mutants are sex-linked and recessive to the wild type. Scarlet eye is allelic to white eye but is not to either red-spotted eye or pigmentless eye, which are allelic to each other; 5.7% recombination was observed between the white eye and pigmentless eye loci.
