Key to species of Cornexcisia View in CoL

1. Male [unknown for S. (C.) longicornuta View in CoL ]: phallus with juxtal arm arising proximo-ventrally, apically divided and partly covered in cuticular pile; lateral stylus bifurcated from base, with each branch elongate, gently curved and slightly expanded apically ( Figs 1F View FIGURE 1 , 3 View FIGURE 3 ). Female [unknown for S. (C.) cygnocerca View in CoL and S. (C.) suthep View in CoL ]: postpedicel about 6 times as long as pedicel ( Fig. 2B View FIGURE 2 ).......................................................................... Sarcophaga (Cornexcisia) View in CoL 2

- Male: phallus different. Female postpedicel at most 4 times as long as pedicel............. Sarcophaga View in CoL (other subgenera)

2. Females [unknown for S. (C.) cygnocerca View in CoL and S. (C.) suthep View in CoL ].................................................. 3

- Males [unknown for S. (C.) longicornuta View in CoL ].................................................................. 4

3. Postpedicel unmodified below insertion of arista...................................... Sarcophaga (C.) kurahashii View in CoL

-. Postpedicel with a trough-shaped antero-proximal depression just below aristal insertion ( Fan & Kano 2000: fig. 2)................................................................................... Sarcophaga (C.) longicornuta View in CoL

4. Cercus long, not particularly broad in lateral view, bent anteriorly almost from middle and with tip gradually tapering ( Fig. 1F View FIGURE 1 ); cerci diverging in posterior view; vesica membranous with a simple, tapering tip............. Sarcophaga (C.) kurahashii View in CoL

- Cercus short, broad in lateral view, almost straight with tip gradually or abruptly tapering; cerci not particularly diverging in posterior view; vesica semi-sclerotized with a complex tip..................................................... 5

5. Cercus abruptly tapering in dorsal view, subapically with a dorsal knob, reminiscent of the beak of a mute swan; vesica with a distal knob; juxta undulating and without a sharp dorso-median crest ( Xue et al. 2011: fig. 4; Fig. 3C View FIGURE 3 )................................................................................................ Sarcophaga (C.) cygnocerca View in CoL

- Cercus gradually tapering in dorsal view, without a dorsal knob; vesica with a median subapical thorn-like structure; juxta with a sharp dorso-median crest (Bänziger & Pape 2003: figs 7–10; Fig. 3B View FIGURE 3 )................................ S. (C.) suthep View in CoL
