Abstract
- Identification of forensically important carrion flies is made challenging by the lack of taxonomists and morphological identification keys. The eggs or larvae are difficult to identify morphologically, and in such cases, molecular technique, DNA Barcoding specific to mt (DNA COI) provides a genuine substitute. The mtCOI of two Calliphoridae species, Chrysomya megacephala, Chrysomya rufifacies and one Sarcophagidae species, Sarcophaga dux are examined in the present study for molecular identification.
