Biological studies and Molecular identification of Blowfly, Calliphora vicina Rob-Desvoidy (Diptera: Calliphoridae) in the central of Erbil province [PDF]
This research aimed to study the life cycle and duration of each biological stage of the blow fly Calliphora vicina. Adult specimens were collected from various locations in the Erbil provinces and reared on decaying chicken meat.

Collision-avoidance and landing responses are mediated by separate pathways in the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
Flies rely heavily on visual feedback for several aspects of flight control. As a fly approaches an object, the image projected across its retina expands, providing the fly with visual feedback that can be used either to trigger a collision-avoidance ...

Microbial effects on the development of forensically important blow fly species [PDF]
Colonisation times and development rates of specific blow fly species are used to estimate the minimum Post Mortem Interval (mPMI). The presence or absence of bacteria on a corpse can potentially affect the development and survival of blow fly larvae ...

A silicon implementation of the fly's optomotor control system [PDF]
Flies are capable of stabilizing their body during free flight by using visual motion information to estimate self-rotation. We have built a hardware model of this optomotor control system in a standard CMOS VLSI process. The result is a small, low-power

The influence of visual landscape on the free flight behavior of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
To study the visual cues that control steering behavior in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, we reconstructed three-dimensional trajectories from images taken by stereo infrared video cameras during free flight within structured visual landscapes ...

The wake dynamics and flight forces of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
We have used flow visualizations and instantaneous force measurements of tethered fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster) to study the dynamics of force generation during flight.

In vivo length oscillations of indirect flight muscles in the fruit fly Drosophila virilis [PDF]
We have used high-speed video microscopy to measure in vivo length oscillations of the indirect flight muscles of the fruit fly Drosophila virilis during tethered flight.
