      Statement
      Reference
      The pulvilli and empodia are usually present in legs of homozygous flies, but claws are frequently lost. The antenna is absent in about half of all cases. When the antenna is present, the arista is deformed and reduced in size. The femur is extensively reduced in size and the coxa is generally missing or present only as a small bulb-like structure. The tibia is bent and fused with the femur, although essentially normal characteristic structures of the tibia, such as transverse rows of bristles, preapical bristles, tibial sense organs and tibial sensilla trichodea are present.

        A concerted action of a paired-type homeobox gene, aristaless, and a homolog of Hox11/tlx homeobox gene, clawless, is essential for the distal tip development of the Drosophila leg. [FBrf0183860]
