O Gênero Drosophila é formado por um grande número de espécies de pequenas moscas. Atualmente há cerca de duas mil espécies descritas no gênero.
Durante muito tempo as drosófilas foram conhecidas como moscas-das-frutas, entretanto essa nomenclatura já não é mais utilizada por referir-se mais apropriadamente às moscas da família Tephritidae, que causam prejuízo aos fruticultores. As drosófilas se alimentam de leveduras em frutos já caídos em início de decomposição, e portanto não causam prejuízo. Algumas espécies se alimentam em outros substratos como cactáceas, também em início de decomposição, e guano de morcego, entre outros.
Dentre todas as espécies do gênero, a mais conhecida é a Drosophila melanogaster. Esta espécie foi usada como modelo em pesquisas que contribuiram para o desenvolvimento de importantes conceitos de Genética.
