摘要
Based on the characters of adult's external morphology and terminalia, a new species of the genus Sarcophaga (s. lat.) (Diptera: Sarcophagidae) is reported from India. Adults of Sarcophaga (Lioproctia) mailansissp. nov. were collected from Kathua, Jammu and Kashmir, North India. An adult female was captured from decomposing chicken meat that had been used as bait for flesh fly collection. The female larviposit on chicken liver and are reared in ideal conditions to produce adult specimens. The morphological descriptions and illustrations of male, female and immatures of Sarcophaga (Lioproctia) mailansissp. nov. are provided in this article, that aid in identification of this medically and forensically relevant flesh fly species.
