Summary

This data file contains means and 95% confidence intervals of thorax length (mm), wing area (mm2), wing cell area (µm2) and wing cell number (thousand trichomes) for 20 Drosophila melanogaster locations collected at 13 latitudes in 1993. These traits were measured for females and males and for two experiments (extracted from Fig. 2&3). Note longitudes in data are approximate.
