Abstract
The haemolymph proteins. glucose and lipids of different developmental stages of Lucilia cuprina were estimated quantitatively. Starting with the early second instar. the protein contents decreased gradually as the fly reached the late pupal stage. The glucose level increased prior to the each larval molt but decreased as the pupa grew old. The lipid contents were higher in the early second instar larvae and decreased prior to molting. but in the third instar the values were reversed and in pupa also this value increased with age
