Abstract
This catalogue presents 176 species distributed in 17 genera and four tribes of Drosophilidae in Colombia, with both subfamilies, Drosophilinae and Steganinae, represented in the Colombian territory. This is probably an underestimate of the real richness of drosophilid species in the country, for two reasons. First, there are relatively few collections of Drosophilidae in Colombia, resulting in significant spatial gaps in the sampling of these flies. Second, we have not considered here species that have already been recorded in neighbour countries but not in Colombia. Consequently, there are certainly several described species, as well as new species, that occur in this area but are not listed here. We hope that this catalogue will stimulate new inventories of drosophilids in Colombia, contributing to fill gaps in the knowledge of this family of flies in the country.
