Immigrans-tripunctata radiation explained

The immigrans-tripunctata radiation is a speciose lineage of Drosophila flies, including over 300 species.^[1] The immigrans-tripunctata radiation is a sister lineage to most other members of the subgenus Drosophila.^[2] A number of species have had their genomes or transcriptomes sequenced for evolutionary studies using Drosophila.

Species groups

The following species groups and numbers largely derive from O'Grady (2018).^[2]
