The dung breeding muscid fly Musca (Byomya) emdeni (Nandi & Sinha, 2004) are found extensively in the open pastures, near the cow sheds and in the manure pit. The adult fly is usually found on freshly deposited cow dung (Fig. 1). Cattle dung pats naturally dropped in pastures are the microhabitat for an abundant and diversified arthropod fauna (Merrit & Anderson 1977, Anderson et. al., 1984, Blume 1985, Cervenka & Moon 1991).
