Scaptomyza (Diptera:Drosophilidae) of Hawai'i III

Due to the extreme isolation of the Hawaiian Islands, the archipelago is home to numerous endemic species and taxa. Among these are Scaptomyza, a genus that originated in Hawai'i, and also accounts for an entire third of the species-level diversity of Drosophilidae in Hawai'i. This large group is believed to have originated and diversified in Hawai'i, before breaking away to other land masses throughout the world. Researchers have proposed that their successful, rapid diversification was due to the small body size, expeditious generation time, and unique ecological and physiological adaptations. Please contribute to our extensive collection of Scaptomyza by transcribing our Insect Museum records!This expedition of 870 tasks is fully transcribed and validated. This data resource is harvested periodically into the main occurrence index.

由于夏威夷群岛处于极端隔绝的地理环境中，该群岛拥有众多特有物种与分类群。其中包括起源于夏威夷的棘果蝇属（Scaptomyza），该属物种占夏威夷果蝇科（Drosophilidae）物种多样性的三分之一。该类群被认为起源并分化于夏威夷群岛，之后扩散至全球各大陆块。研究人员认为，其成功且快速的物种分化得益于个体体型小巧、世代周期短促，以及独特的生态与生理适应性。请通过转录我们的昆虫博物馆馆藏记录，助力我们完善棘果蝇属的丰富馆藏！本次包含870项任务的转录工作已全部完成并经过验证。该数据集资源将定期同步至主发生记录索引库。
