Abstract

We report necrophagous Diptera and Coleoptera infesting five stray animal carcasses (a water buffalo calf, a dog, a rat, a snake, and a horse) in the Aligarh region of Uttar Pradesh, India. This study provides basic information regarding dipteran and coleopteran fauna associated with different decay stages of animal carcasses in India.
