Bamp-31 = Blunt abdominal and metathoracic projections
Gene: Bamp-31
Feature/structure: T1 Sternellum and A3 point.
Linkage Group:  3 
Origin: ChrE [lethal]
Description: • The most obvious and easily identified feature of Bamp31 is its shortened, narrowed T1 sternellum. The blunted abdominal and metathoracic projections are more subtile than that found in other Bamp alleles. This allele also commonly has disrupted gular sutures and divergent, "rumpled" elytra.
