Drosophilid Flies (Diptera) in the Mahale Mountains National Park, Tanzania: A Preliminary Report

Eight species of drosophilids were collected at Kasoje in the Mahale Mountains National Park, western Tanzania, during the wet season of 1983-1984; one circumtropical species and seven Afrotropical species, all of which are all new records from Tanzania. The distributions of respective species known so far suggest some affinities in the drosophilid fauna between the Mahale Mountains and central and western Africa
