This research aimed to investigate the DNA of food sources taken from blowfly (Chrysomya megacephala) larval guts, for application in forensic entomology. The muscle samples of domestic swine (Sus scrofa), decomposed in 2 conditions, in air and drowning,

Geometric-morphometric analysis of wing shape of Lucilla sericata Meigen (Diptera: calliphoridae) from two different environments [PDF]
The common green blowfly, Lucilla sericata, is a widespread species with forensic, medical, and veterinary importance. In this study, we use geometric morphometric as a tool to assess differences in the wing shape of female L.

Stabilizing gaze in flying blowflies [PDF]
When the gaze is moved quickly, vision becomes blurred and the way in which three-dimensional structures are seen can be affected1. How can these effects be minimized? During flight, blowflies (Calliphora vicina) turn both the head and the thorax very quickly, producing gaze shifts which affect vision.

Molecular and pharmacological characterization of serotonin 5-HT2α and 5-HT7 receptors in the salivary glands of the blowfly Calliphora vicina. [PDF]
Secretion in blowfly (Calliphora vicina) salivary glands is stimulated by the biogenic amine serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT), which activates both inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP(3))/Ca(2+) and cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP ...

Abstract This study investigated the effects of continuous refrigeration (4°C ± 2°C and 50% ± 5% RH) on the development and survival of immature stages (eggs, first, second, and third instar larvae, and pupae) of four forensically important blowfly species (Chrysomya megacephala, Chrysomya putoria, Hemilucilia segmentaria, and Lucilia cuprina) compared

Seasonal blowfly distribution and abundance in fragmented landscapes. Is it useful in forensic inference about where a corpse has been decaying? [PDF]
Blowflies are insects of forensic interest as they may indicate characteristics of the environment where a body has been laying prior to the discovery. In order to estimate changes in community related to landscape and to assess if blowfly species can be
