Male external genitalia with primary and secondary claspers, secondary clasper usually with very large bristles (but note that
Drosophila paraviaristata
Takada, Momma and Shima 1973
, is an exception in this respect); sex comb in almost all species (exceptions discussed by
Bock 1980
and
Lemeunier
et al.
1986
) with longitudinal rows of teeth along metatarsus and second tarsal segment; abdominal colour dimorphism rarely present (
D. jambulina
is one of several exceptions), most species possessing shiny yellowish or brown tergites with clearly defined apical black bands in both sexes; abdominal tergites with sparse large apical bristles (
Bock 1980
).
