i5K Comments for Zaprionus indianus
Major pest on figs in Brazil (<80% export loss) where it invaded 12 years ago. Current invasive range: Northern Argentina to Southern US. A superior competitor that becomes the dominant species (<90% individuals) within the invaded communities within 2 years. First species to be sequenced in the third major clade within the genus Drosophila; Zaprionus is positioned with Drosophila. Suitable sequencing material is available from the San Diego Drosophila Stock Center or via the proposer. Kim van der Linde
