Drosophila (Drosophila) navojoa Ruiz, Heed & Wasserman, 1990: 40. Species "from Navojoa": Wasserman 1982a: 95-98; 1982b: 54, 57, 59.

Non-type material.

strain E2.1 (Navojoa, Sonora, Mexico), 1979: 2 ♂♂ (dissected) plus 23 ♂♂, 14 ♀♀ (MZSP); 1 ♂, 3 ♀♀ (AMNH).

Male terminalia.

Epandrium (Fig. 6A View Figure 6 ) dorsally microtrichose, slightly microtrichose on posterior medioventral area, with about 2 upper and 9 lower setae; ventral lobe narrow, distally round, not covering surstylus. Cercus mostly microtrichose, anteromedially fused to epandrium. Surstylus not microtrichose, with about 11-12 cone-shaped prensisetae, 1 outer and 3 inner setae. Decasternum as in Fig. 6A View Figure 6 . Hypandrium (Fig. 6A View Figure 6 ) slightly shorter than epandrium, anterior margin convex; posterior hypandrial process and dorsal arch absent; gonopod not microtrichose, linked to paraphysis by membranous tissue, bearing one seta on anterior inner margin. Aedeagus (Fig. 6A-D View Figure 6 ) distally expanded dorsoventrally and bearing a bulbous, membranous, and microtrichose area; submedially bearing a single ventral, anterad pointed spur (probably by fusion of two); dorsal cleft ca. 4/5 length of aedeagus (Fig. 6B, C View Figure 6 ); paraphysis triangle-shaped, not microtrichose, connected to gonopod by membranous tissue, submedially bearing one setula on dorsal margin (Fig. 6D View Figure 6 ). Aedeagal apodeme shorter than aedeagus and fused to it, laterally flattened, dorsodistally bifid (Fig. 6B, C View Figure 6 ). Ventral rod as long as paraphysis, dorsoventrally flattened, completely fused to aedeagal apodeme (Fig. 6D View Figure 6 ).
