Drosophila melanogaster Meigen, 1830

黑腹果蝇（学名：Drosophila melanogaster），也称黑尾果蝇，是被人类研究得最彻底的生物之一，为模式生物。从查尔斯·伍德沃斯（Charles W. Woodworth）利用该物种作为模式生物的建议开始，黑腹果蝇继续被广泛用于遗传学、生理学、微生物发病机理和生命历史进化的生物学研究。截至2017年，已有8个诺贝尔奖颁发给使用果蝇的研究。黑腹果蝇通常被用于研究，因为它可以很容易地在实验室饲养，只有4對（8條）染色体，迅速繁殖，并且产很多卵，成蟲之後會棲息於水泥牆壁之中。其地理范围包括各大洲，包括岛屿。黑腹果蝇是家庭，餐馆和其他有食物的地方常见的害虫。
