The behaviour of the chromosomal polymorphism of D. subobscura was analyzed in relation to temporal changes, daily, seasonal and annual. Firstly, chromosome analyses were carried out over a year in a natural population. Samples were taken at monthly intervals in Tibidabo, a locality close to Barcelo

โฆ Synopsis
Drosophila bipect&ata, a member of the melanogaster species group, is a common and wide-spread species in the Indian subcontinent. A geographic survey of inversion polymorphism has been carried out in Indian populations. Altogether, nine paracentric inversions are detected in the populations examined during this study. Of the nine inversions, two have been described earlier by Bock from laboratory populations established from Borneo, Thailand and the Philippines. The possible relationship between inversions and different environmental conditions is discussed.

Experimental populations were examined for temporal changes of gametic disequilibria between allozyme loci (Lap and Pept-1) and gene arrangements of the O chromosome of Drosophila subobscura (Ost and 03+4+7) under several environmental conditions. In the foundation of the experimental populations a
