Abstract
The spatial position of the site of XL chromosome attachment to the nuclear envelope of ovarian nurse cells relative to the oocyte has been analyzed in the malaria mosquito Anopheles atroparvus van Thiel. The XL chromosome attachment sites in the oocyte-nurse cell system of this species have been demonstrated to be orderly arranged, with the attachment sites in two out of three nurse cells in the same layer identically oriented relative to the oocyte.
