Abstract
1. The distribution of substance P-like immunoreactivity was investigated in adult CNS of the fieshfly Sarcophaga bullata using peroxidase-antiperoxidase and indirect immunofluorescent methods. 2. Ten cells in the brain and six in the thoracic ganglion exhibited positive immunoreactivity. 3. The dorsal neural sheath of the thoracic ganglion was highly immunoreactive with a large number of varicosities. 4. It is suggested that substance P may function as a neurohormone/neuromodulator in the fleshfly.
