Science condemns itself to failure when... it aspires to attain being... and to possess it; but it finds its truth if it considers itself a free engagement of thought in the given, aiming, at each discovery, not at fusion, but at the possibility of new discoveries. -De Beauvoir

@lastpositivist You’re right but it seems like peach lady is a codependent (orig described wrt family of alcoholics, now understood to be common and occur in a much wider range of circumstances). If so, it will be v difficult to leave because it is behavioral addiction. I wish the best for her.

Really proud to share this preprint on the nomenclature and visual guide of Drosophila female terminalia. Led by past grad student @evo_dva!

I remember so many times dissecting adults for various reasons and not knowing what on earth I was looking at😱

Many thanks to all of the members of the consortium for contributing your expertise to this effort. It was an absolute pleasure working with this fantastic group (genitalia researchers are the most fun). We hope that the community will find this resource useful for years to come!

Hello to all researchers out there interested in the evolution and development of genital structures in Drosophila! Our manuscript “A Standardized Nomenclature and Atlas of the Female Terminalia of Drosophila melanogaster” is now available on Preprints!

This manuscript is a follow up to an article which tackled the same problem for the male genitalia in D. mel! In case you missed it, that work is published in the journal Fly, here:
