Hello,
here is a Drosophila found the 07 02 22022 in the detritus of the garden.Size : 4 mm
Locality : Luçon, middle west of France.

It looks like apparently D. hydei but the thorax does not suit to the team of the "forum du monde des insectes".

Is it possible to get species ?

Thank you by advance.

Regards

Christian

I agree with D. hydei. The typical pattern of dots on mesonotum can be lost e. g. if the specimen was treated with alcohol immediately before.
