Preliminary Study on the Larval Development of Calliphora vicina (Diptera: Calliphoridae) on Different Types of Substrates Used as Reference in Forensic Entomology [PDF]
Necrophagous insects are indicators of corpse decay. Analyses of their development stages give us indications on the degree of decay of corpses and contribute to the determination of the post-mortem interval.
