We expect that M. meridiana also have great forensic importance due to the two specimens were collected on 3th and 8th days of decomposition; fresh and bloat stages when the Calliphoridae and Sarcophagidae species not certainly active due to seasonal activity periods.

Abstract

Muscidae is a wide spread calyptrate family all over the World. On the other hand this family has great importance for ecological, veterinary, medical and forensic science. This family presented with 578 species in Europe and also has great species richness in Turkey. In this study Mesembrina meridiana (L. 1758) was reported first time in Turkey. We expect that M. meridiana also have great forensic importance due to the two specimens were collected on 3th and 8th days of decomposition; fresh and bloat stages when the Calliphoridae and Sarcophagidae species not certainly active due to seasonal activity periods.
