The spotted wing drosophila (SWD), Drosophila suzukii, is a small fruit fly, about 3 mm in length, which closely resembles the familiar and common fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. It is an exotic, invasive pest from Japan and eastern Asia that actually injures ripening, sound fruit and has the potential to be an annual, devastating pest in fruit production in the United States and Nebraska.
