Abstract

This study contributes to the knowledge of the tachinid fauna of Serbia, with material primarily collected from southern regions of the country. A total of 16 tachinid species were identified, including Carcelia dubia, representing a new record for Serbia's tachinid fauna. The larvae of Zygaena filipendulae and Melitaea trivia were documented as new hosts for three tachinid species.
