Abstract: Identifying sarcosaphagous flies specimens is an important first step in a forensic-entomological analysis. It is traditionally performed using morphological features of the Sarcosaphagous Flies. However, Morphological identification may be complicated by the numerical diversity of species and physical similarity between different species, particularly in immature stages. The sequences focused on some sections of the cytochrome oxidase Ⅰ and Ⅱ (COⅠ and COⅡ) encoding region of mtDNA could be as the prospective basis of a diagnostic technique. By Analysis of these sequences, forensic doctors can reveal abundant phylogenetic informative nucleotide substitutions that could effectively identify Sarcosaphagous flies to species group. It was not reported in our country before and was reviewed in this article now.

Key words: sarcosaphagous flies species, mitochondrial DNA, molecular marker COⅠ, molecular marker COⅡ
