Intraspecific variation in the effects of mating on the emigration response behavior and fecundity of Drosophila melanogaster was investigated using isofemale lines of the Himeji population in Japan. The emigration activities of the mated and unmated females were examined with Sakais population system. The isofemale lines were classified into two groups with respect to the effect of mating on emigration activity; 1) copulation decreased the emigration activity in 26 out of 28 isofemale lines, and 2) higher emigration activity was noted in the mated than in the unmated females in two lines. The percentage of expressed genotypic variance on emigration activity was higher in the unmated females than in the mated ones. Gregarious oviposition did not seem to be related to the decrease of emigration activity in the mated females.
