This study examines urban Drosophila communities in Vienna, finding a 50% decline in species richness and replacement of native species by neobiots, highlighting their potential as biodiversity indicators.

The paper identifies parallel visual pathways with topographic and non-topographic organization connecting Drosophila eyes to the central brain, revealing distinct circuitry for spatial information relay.

The paper identifies a topographic relay in Drosophila's central brain, showing how spatial visual information is preserved through specific neuron classes and synaptic organization.
