PATTERNS OF SPECIATION IN DROSOPHILA

To investigate the time course of speciation, we gathered literature data on 119 pairs of closely related Drosophila species with known genetic distances, mating discrimination, strength of hybrid sterility and inviability, and geographic ranges. Because genetic distance is correlated with divergence time, these data provide a cross‐section of taxa at different stages of speciation.
