Table 1.

Mean fore- and hindwing sizes following five generations of artificial selection on absolute wing area. Lineage means are presented in categories based on selection for increased or decreased wing size and whether the wing was the direct target of artificial selection or the trait exhibiting a correlated response. Mean wing areas are given in square millimeters and are followed by SD. Standard errors for the means and SD are given in parentheses.
