- Drosophila X virus - Drosophila X virus is a virus that infects fruit flies of the genus Drosophila and is commonly used to study innate immunity in the common model organism Drosophila melanogaster. The viral capsid is roughly hexagonal and icosahedrally symmetrical.
- Drosophila funebris - Drosophila funebris (Fabricius, 1787) is a species of fly. It was originally placed in the genus Musca but is now the type specimen of the paraphyletic genus Drosophila.
- Drosophila melanogaster species subgroup - The Drosophila melanogaster species subgroup contains 9 species, including the best known species Drosophila melanogaster and D. simulans.
- Drosophila melanogaster species group - The Drosophila melanogaster species group belongs to the subgenus Sophophora and contains 12 subgroups. The phylogeny in this species group is poorly known despite many studies covering many of the species subgroups.
- Extramacrochaetae - The gene extramachrochaetae (emc) is a Drosophila melanogaster gene that codes for the Emc protein, which has a wide variety of developmental roles. It was named, as is common for Drosophila genes, after the phenotypic change caused by a mutation in the gene (macrochaetae are the longer bristles on Drosophila).
