Abstract

Generally, the blow flies and flesh flies are found on dead and decaying bodies which give many clues regarding the death of the victim for forensic scientists. Here, we have reported for the first time, the presence of Parasarcophaga (Thomsonea) argyrostoma (Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830) flesh flies, from the sample collected from Beed district of Maharashtra State, India. In present study the morphological characters, structure of genitalia and sternite of male, cephaloskeleton, posterior spiracles, spines on thoracic segment and pupa are used as identification keys along with its geographical habitat reported in India. P.argyrostoma is not only found as vector of different microorganisms but is also reported to cause Myiasis in live human and animals.
KEY WORD: Sarcophagidae, Parasarcophaga argyrostoma, Beed district, Cephaloskeleton, Posterior spiracles, Myiasis.
