A new species of theDrosophila(Drosophila)melanicaspecies group (Diptera: Drosophilidae),Drosophila denruoiSuwito & Watabe, sp. nov., is described from northern Vietnam. It is proved by crossing experiments that reproductive isolation is complete between this species and other morphologically similar species. Larval ganglion cells ofD. denruoipossess 2n= 12 chromosomes, comprised of four pairs of acrocentric, one pair of metacentric and one pair of micro‐chromosomes. This is the largest number of acrocentric chromosomes in the group and implies that the species has the most primitive chromosomal configuration in themelanicagroup. Based on the results of crossing experiments and close morphological examination,Drosophila pengiOkada & Kurokawa, 1957 from central Japan, once regarded as a synonym ofDrosophila tsiganaBurla & Gloor, 1952, is shown to be distinct fromD. tsigana.Drosophila pengiis thus resurrected as a member of themelanicagroup. We synonymizeDrosophila bisetataToda, 1988, described from central Myanmar, withD. pengi. In addition, a population from Guizhou, southwestern China, once regarded asD. tsigana, is also identified asD. pengi.These populations from central Myanmar and southwestern China share the diagnostic characters ofD. pengi. At the same time, it is reconfirmed that the Hokkaido population is conspecific with EuropeanD. tsigana. Furthermore, another species,Drosophila longiserrataToda, 1988 described from central Myanmar, is synonymized withDrosophila aferTan, Hsu & Sheng, 1949 from China, based on their having identical karyotypes and external morphology.
