List Of Drosophila Species
''Drosophila'' is a genus of flies of the family Drosophilidae. It comprises over 1600 described species, but is estimated to have several thousands. Alfred Sturtevant divided ''Drosophila'' into a number of subgenera, including ''Drosophila'', ''Sophophora'', and ''Dorsilopha The subgenus ''Dorsilopha'' belongs to genus ''Drosophila'' and consists of four species. The phylogenetic position of this group has been unclear for a long time,van der Linde, K. & Houle, D. (2008). A supertree analysis and literature review of ...''.Sturtevant, A. H. (1939).

Drosophila
''Drosophila'' () is a genus of flies, belonging to the family Drosophilidae, whose members are often called "small fruit flies" or (less frequently) pomace flies, vinegar flies, or wine flies, a reference to the characteristic of many species to linger around overripe or rotting fruit. They should not be confused with the Tephritidae, a related family, which are also called fruit flies (sometimes referred to as "true fruit flies"); tephritids feed primarily on unripe or ripe fruit, with many species being regarded as destructive agricultural pests, especially the Mediterranean fruit fly. One species of ''Drosophila'' in particular, '' D. melanogaster'', has been heavily used in research in genetics and is a common model organism in developmental biology. The terms "fruit fly" and "''Drosophila''" are often used synonymously with ''D. melanogaster'' in modern biological literature. The entire genus, however, contains more than 1,500 species and is very diverse in appearan ...
