Description

Drosophila sturtevanti Duda, 1927

(Fig. 8)

Non-type material. Strains STV-1 (Matão, São Paulo, Brazil): 47 males dissected; STV-2 (Aguaí, Santa Catarina, Brazil): 14 males dissected; and STV-3 (Ribeirão da Ilha, Santa Catarina, Brazil): 10 males dissected.

Male terminalia. The aedeagal apex resembles a horn, where the phallotrema is found (Fig. 8A–C). The ventral postgonite is chitinized, rigid and smooth and the base of this structure together with the upper ventral region of the aedeagus have scales (Fig. 8B, C). The lower base of the aedeagus displays a “caudal” projection (Fig. 8B).
