Description
In last June or early July many of you mashed up bananas, put them in jam jars and left them for fruit flies to find. You were helping with our Drosophila survey. In this programme, I'm going to ...discuss your results and also I'm going to sum up all the information we've collected in the eight years since our first Drosophila survey in 1971. Later in the programme Mike Pentz will talk about your Sulphur Dioxide survey results.
