Drosophila aglaia was first recorded in 1946, on Mount Kaala on the island of Oahu, and described by Hardy (1965). D. aglaia is a small species, 0.15 inches (in) (4.0 millimeters (mm)) in length, with wings 0.2 in (5.0 mm) long. It has a yellow head that is approximately one-third wider than long. Drosophila is a genus of flies, belonging to the family Drosophilidae, whose members are often called “small fruit flies” or pomace flies, vinegar flies, or wine flies, a reference to the characteristic of many species to linger around overripe or rotting fruit. They should not be confused with the Tephritidae, a related family, which are also called fruit flies; tephritids feed primarily on unripe or ripe fruit, with many species being regarded as destructive agricultural pests, especially the Mediterranean fruit fly.
