Gena and occiput with setulae only yellow/white. Prescutellar acrostichal setae present. Apical scutellar setae present in males, but either absent or present in females. Proepisternum uniformly setulose, with setulae only yellow/white. Males with long setulae on the hind tibia. 1st and 2nd abdominal sternites with setulae only yellow/white.

Australia (Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales , Northern Territory, Queensland, South Australia , Tasmania, Victoria, Western Australia )—AUSTRALASIAN/OCEANIAN. Biology. Sarcophaga impatiens has been bred from rotten meat and sheep's liver ( Johnston & Tiegs 1921 ) and collected at decayed-carrion baits by KAM. Larval development of S . impatiens was investigated by Roberts (1976) . This species has also been recorded by JFW in forensic cases in Australia . Taxonomy. All three larval instars were described by Cantrell (1981; referred to as Tricholioproctia impatiens ) . DNA barcode sequences of S . impatiens have been deposited in both GenBank and BOLD.
