Abstract
⺠The larval epithelial cells (LECs) undergo extensive coordinated migrations. ⺠These migrations follow a transition from a stationary to a migratory mode. ⺠Directed apical lamellipodia-like protrusions propel the cells. ⺠LEC migration is regulated by Dpp signalling, planar cell polarity and Rho1. ⺠LEC migration contributes to the morphogenesis of the adult abdominal epidermis.
