Abstract: The six Drosophila paulistorum semispecies were tested for sexual isolation before and after the following six treatments: Seclusion, total physical isolation from consemispecifics; long term chemical and vibratory contact (LTCVC), exposure to airborne heterosemispecific stimuli from egg through sexual maturity; postimaginal contact (PIC), physical contact with heterosemispecifics during the postimaginal period only; selection, total physical contact with heterosemispecific individuals during preimaginal stages; relaxation, pure culturing without total physical contact; reselection, reinstatement of selection in two ways, LTCVC and mixed culturing: {dollar}\uparrow{dollar} = isolation significantly increased; {dollar}-{dollar} = isolation was not changed significantly; and {dollar}\downarrow{dollar} = isolation significantly decreased.(UNFORMATTED TABLE OR EQUATION FOLLOWS){dollar}{dollar}\vbox{lcub}\halign{lcub}\hfil#\hfil&&\qquad#\hfil\cr&{dollar}\underline{lcub}\rm TREATMENT{rcub}{dollar}&{dollar}\underline{lcub}\rm SEXUAL\ ISOLATION{rcub}{dollar}\cr&Seclusion&{dollar}\downarrow{dollar}\cr&LTCVC&{dollar}\uparrow{dollar}\cr&PIC&{dollar} -{dollar}\cr&Selection&{dollar}\uparrow{dollar}\cr&Relaxation&{dollar}\downarrow {dollar}\cr&Reselection&{dollar}\uparrow{dollar}\cr{rcub}{rcub}{dollar}{dollar}(TABLE/EQUATION ENDS).
