Side-striped jackal

The side-striped jackal is a canine native to central and southern Africa. Unlike the smaller black-backed jackal which dwells in open plains, the side-striped jackal primarily dwells in woodland and scrub areas.

The paraphyletic subgenus Sophophora of the genus Drosophila was first described by Alfred Sturtevant in 1939. It contains the best-known drosophilid species, Drosophila melanogaster. Sophophora translates as carrier (phora) of wisdom (sophos). The subgenus is paraphyletic because the genus Lordiphosa and the species Hirtodrosophila duncani are also placed within this subgenus.

The species was first described as Clathrina adusta by Gert Wörheide & John Hooper in 1999, and was assigned to the genus, Arthuria, in 2016 by Oliver Voigt & Wörheide. However, the name Arthuria had already been used and hence the genus name was changed to Arturia.

Hawaiian Drosophila

The Hawaiian Drosophila are a paraphyletic and speciose lineage of Drosophila vinegar flies, and members of the subgenus Drosophila. Over 1000 species of Drosophila are endemic to the Hawaiian islands. The Hawaiian Drosophila species also include the "picture-wing" clade of Drosophila, named for the intricate patterns of melanin pigment on their wings. Over 100 species belong to the picture-wing clade of flies, prompting the generation of a database devoted solely to wing diversity in the Hawaiian Drosophila lineage. The Hawaiian Drosophila species group is paraphyletic, as the Scaptomyza genus is nested within the Hawaiian Drosophila clade.

<i>Lupulella</i>

Lupulella is a genus of canine found in Africa. This genus consists of only two extant species, the black-backed jackal and the side-striped jackal.
