You may well be able to find more current ones elsewhere. But if not, take a look at ftp://iubio.bio.indiana.edu/molbio/data/fly.codon-table from 1989 compiled by Michael Ashburner. He notes in this table "In fact it may be the final version as i don't see it changing very much." ftp://iubio.bio.indiana.edu/molbio/codon/dro.cod from 1991 compiled by Mike Cherry, using 412 genes found in GenBank 63 -- Don -- -- d.gilbert--biocomputing--indiana u--bloomington--gilbertd@bio.indiana.edu .
