Mathematical chaos in simple growth models has grave consequences for theoretical ecology. Much effort has recently been directed towards delimiting the conditions under which chaos exists. An empirical search was performed for chaos among 27 Drosophila spp. at 2 temperatures. Single-species laboratory populations invariably exhibited dynamical stability. Chaos and stable limit cycle behavior are maladaptive, and an evolutionary mechanism is proposed whereby group selection for stability occurs.
