Drosophilidae (Diptera) of the Cook Islands
Records of the Australian Museum, 2021 In 2017 a survey was conducted of the Drosophilidae on the remote Cook Islands: Rarotonga, Aitutaki and Mangaia in the Tropical South Pacific. A diverse range of collecting methods was implemented, at different elevations and in domestic, rural, and ...

Comparative mitogenomics of Drosophilidae and the evolution of the Zygothrica genus group (Diptera, Drosophilidae) [PDF]
Genetica, 2021 The Zygothrica genus group of Drosophilidae encompasses more than 437 species and five genera. Although knowledge regarding its diversity has increased, uncertainties about its monophyly and position within Drosophilidae remain. Genomic approaches have been widely used to address different phylogenetic questions and analyses involving the mitogenome ...

The Drosophilidae Associated with Tropical African Figs [PDF]
Evolution, 1982 In the tropical African region the entire drosophilid genus Lissoceplzala and Drosophila $mu species group have evolved a close association with endemic figs (Ficus spp., Moraceae). We previously described the biology of a few of these figdependent drosophilids (Lachaise, 1977). We report here on a further investigation in evergreen rainforests, mainly

European Journal of Entomology, 2021 The functions of the larval salivary glands (SGs) of Drosophila are traditionally associated with the production of a massive secretion during puparium formation; it is exocytosed into a centrally located lumen and subsequently expectorated via ducts ...

European Journal of Entomology, 2015 Historical and observational data for invasive species are often sparse and incomplete, so molecular genetic markers are increasingly used and have proved to be efficient tools to make inferences about invasion histories.

European Journal of Entomology, 2020 Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura, 1931) is an invasive pest from South-East Asia that can damage a wide range of soft-skinned fruit crops (especially berries) resulting in serious financial losses. At present, control of D.
