It has been suggested that many of the changes in the developmental program might be in the cis-acting promoters and enhancer regions. Here I study the macro-evolutionary changes of an enhancer region for the early developmental gene hairy in Drosophila melanogaster, D. simulans, D. pseudoobscura, D. willistoni, D. nebulosa, D. hydei, and D. virilis. The enhancer region is characterized by small, highly conserved...
