Three Drosophila mulleri complex species have been found to be endemic to the cactus regions of northern South America. The three species are morphologically distinct, and no hybridization between species has been found in either the laboratory or nature. An analysis of their salivary gland chromosomes revealed that they evolved from a single cytological population, subspecies F of the ancestor of the D. mulleri complex, and comprise a cluster of sister species that are homozygous for inversions not found elsewhere. Within the martensis cluster are also found several inversions that are unique for these species, but have segregated out among the three species. Thus 2f2 is found in martensis and starmeri, but not in uniseta, while 2t6, 3v and 3w are found in starmeri and uniseta, but not in martensis. This is analogous to the situation found within the remainder of the mulleri complex species, all the members of which share homozygosity for six other inversions. An interpretation of the cytological evolution of the martensis cluster is proposed.
