DISTRIBUTION. Widespread in Palearctic region (
Bächli & Rocha Pité, 1984
) and
Russia
(
Gornostaev, 1997
;
Sidorenko, 2001
).
Now 31 species in ten genera of
Drosophilidae
are known from
Adygea
, 15 of which are recorded here from this region for the first time. Totally 32 species of
Drosophilidae
are known from
Adygea
and
Krasnodar Krai
: 31 species from
Adygea
(
Gornostaev, 1997
and present data) and 16 species from adjacent
Krasnodar Krai
(
Gornostaev, 1997
).
Among them 16 drosophilid species (
Amiota albilabris
,
A. variegata
,
Gitona distigma
,
Stegana hypoleuca
,
Chymomyza amoena
,
Drosophila busckii
,
D. funebris
,
D. histrio
,
D.
immigrans
,
D. kuntzei
,
D.limbata
,
D. melanogaster
,
D. simulans
,
Hirtodrosophila trivittata
,
Scaptomyza flava
, and
S. graminum
) are found only in
Adygea
, one species (
Drosophila lummei
Hackman, 1972
) is known only from
Krasnodar Krai
, and 15 species (
Leucophenga maculata
,
Chymomyza caudatula
,
Drosophila hydei
,
D. littoralis
,
D. phalerata
,
D. testacea
,
D. transversa
,
D.helvetica
,
D. obscura
,
D. subobscura
,
D. tristis
,
Hirtodrosophila confusa
,
Mycodrosophila poecilogastra
,
Scaptodrosophila deflexa
,
and
Scaptomyza pallida
) are recorded from both regions. Thus, the fauna of
Drosophilidae
of
Adygea
, apparently, is rather similar to the fauna of
Krasnodar Krai
but the latter region should be more carefully studied.
