The effect of stressful and nonstressful rearing temperatures on phenotypic variation of four quantitative characters (thorax length, wing length, number of sternopleural chaetae, number of arista branches) and on developmental stability (fluctuating asymmetry) of the three latter characters was estimated in twoDrosophilaspecies:Drosophila melanogasterandDrosophila buzzatii. In both species, a general trend for increasing of phenotypic variation and fluctuating asymmetry at stress temperatures was observed; in fluctuating asymmetry, this effect was more pronounced. An increase of phenotypic variation under stress was shown for all characters examined except sternopleural chaeta number inD. buzzatii. Comparison of species responses suggests that the increase of variation inD. melanogasterwas somewhat higher than inD. buzzatii.
