Abstract
The external male genitalia of Sarcophaga tibialis Macquart are composed of a V-shaped sclerite of the 5th sternite and a phallic complex consisting of an ejaculatory sclerite and bulb, a pair of parameres, and the aedeagus. The cerci are well developed and highly sclerotized. The internal reproductive organs of males and the external and internal reproductive organs of females are similar to those found in other Diptera. Ovaries reach maximum size 10–13 days after adult eclosion. In females, pupal fat body is replaced by adult fat body on the 4th day. Seven oogenetic stages are distinguished between the day of eclosion and ovulation.
