Can anyone help to identify the species from these pictures?
Taken in Jerusalem a few weeks ago.

Is the fore basitarsus swollen?

I only have these pictures. In the top one you can see the right fore leg out of focus, it appears to not be swollen but hard to tell.

I was wondering if it could be Drosophila immigrans. The male of that species has a swollen fore basitarsus.

Other than the cosmopolitan species, I don't know what you have in Jerusalem.
