High resolution images of the general morphology of Drosophila suzukii (spotted-wing drosophila, SWD) males and females are presented here allowing intra- and interspecific comparisons. Since females lack spotted-wings, correct identification of females relies on details of the oviscapt. The detail of sex combs on the male foreleg (see Figs 19–22) are also diagnostically important and useful when wings are damaged. Specimens for these images were collected in Italy (John Tann) and are deposited in the Australian Museum, Sydney.
