All 66 photographs on Fruit-Flies.com are freely licensed images from Wikimedia Commons. Nothing here is stock photography; two of the files were originally Unsplash photos that the photographers later released to Commons under CC0.

50 of them are under a Creative Commons licence that requires the photographer to be named, and every one of those carries the full credit directly under the picture as well. This table is the complete overview: the page the photo appears on, the file at the source, the photographer and the licence — all linked.

Photos marked Scaled to 1200 px are reduced in size for the web; the page layout may also crop what you see. Nothing else about them is changed. If you believe a credit is wrong or incomplete, get in touch and we'll fix it.
