Abstract

The present checklist reveals a total of three species viz. Dryomyza formosa Wiedemann, 1830, Dryomyza pakistana Kurahashi, 1989 and Paradryomyza steyskali Ozerov & Sueyoshi, 2002 under 2 genera belongs to subfamily Dryomyzinae Schiner, 1862 and tribe Dryomyzini Schiner 1862. Besides that, the present study also depicts their discontinuous and restricted distribution pattern. The current checklist will serve as a primary database to encourage future research on medically and forensically important flies of Indian Dryomyzidae.
