Case description

Official source account — 2019 annual report, printed page 32: Agustín Albizuri found an apparent object in a photograph taken in Mendoza on 19 June 2019. CIAE examined its two-part body and translucent lateral structures with dark markings, comparing them with a small fly. The agency interpreted it as compatible with a male spotted-wing drosophila at less than five centimeters from the lens. Its Type A conclusion attributed the large blurred appearance to extreme proximity rather than a large distant object. The summaries distinguish reported observations from the agency’s proposed explanations. Source Type A/B ratings describe explanatory confidence and are not encounter classes. The map uses an approximate GeoNames locality centroid, not the observation point.
