Default What's red in fruit flies?

I just had a spill of ff (turkish gliders) on my kitchen counter, and as I was frantically smashing them before they could spread everywhere, I was leaving very distinct red streaks on the counter. What in ff is red to leave this streak?

I wonder if that will ever come up in a trivial pursuit game? Very interesting...there is an awful lot of eye pigment in one little fly! SPLAT! :lol:
