Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Pupa of Drosophila suzukii?

Hello everybody,

Found on very ripe cherries in a garden in the suburbs of Paris, this pupa (3 mm long) looks like another one that I noticed on a forum which eventually gave birth to an imago Drosophila suzukii. Is the shape of this pupa characteristic of this species? or do other species have the same form?

I did collect the pupa but, so far, nothing has emerged :(

Thank you

It is consistent with the pupa of that species, as is, of course, the location where it was found.
