Encapsulation Ability

Unable to form cellular capsules around large foreign bodies, the species Drosophila subobscura Collin in Gordon, 1936 was previously shown devoid of lamellocytes, the capsule-forming hemocytes in Drosophila melanogaster Meigen, 1830. This unusual case of deficiency in encapsulation ability was remarkable enough to motivate further investigations in phylogenetically related species of the obscura group. Like D. subobscura, the species Drosophila azteca Sturtevant and Dobzhansky, 1936, Drosophila bifasciata Pomini, 1940, Drosophila guanche Monclus, 1976, Drosophila miranda Dobzhansky, 1935, Drosophila persimilis Dobzhansky and Epling, 1944, and Drosophila pseudoobcura Frovola and Astaurov, 1929 were found to be unable to encapsulate large foreign bodies and also to lack lamellocytes. Surprisingly, Drosophila affinis Sturtevant, 1916, Drosophila tolteca Patterson and Mainland, 1944, and Drosophila obscura Fallen, 1823 were capable of mounting cellular capsules, although their encapsulation abilities remained weak. These three species were free of lamellocytes but possessed small pools of never before described “atypical hemocytes” present in the hemolymph when capsules were formed.
