Arista (biology), Arista with one ventral branch, and anterior reclinate orbital bristle fine. Ventral receptacle in the form of loops, folded flat against the ventral surface of the vagina. Distribution Worldwide, though most species are tropical or subtropical in distribution. Biology Where known, all species are associated with fungi, which is the preferred larval food. Species There are approximately 150 described species divided into ten species groups. *''Hirtodrosophila actinia, H. actinia'' (Okada, 1991) *''Hirtodrosophila akabo, H. akabo'' (Burla, 1954) *''Hirtodrosophila alabamensis, H. alabamensis'' (Sturtevant, 1918) ...
