 Can anyone help to identify the species from these pictures?
Taken in Jerusalem a few weeks ago.

 I only have these pictures. In the top one you can see the right fore leg out of focus, it appears to not be swollen but hard to tell.

 I was wondering if it could be Drosophila immigrans. The male of that species has a swollen fore basitarsus.

Other than the cosmopolitan species, I don't know what you have in Jerusalem.

I have just received the very sad news that Peter Chandler has died after a fall at home yesterday. I have no other details at the moment. We shall miss him terribly.

Dr Michael von Tschirnhaus, a leading expert on Chloropidae and Agromyzidae, died on 16 September 2025 at the age of 86. He will be greatly missed by the international community. R.I.P.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
