Quantifying the Temperature of Maggot Masses and its Relationship to Decomposition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Numerous Calliphoridae species have been observed to form larval aggregations during the feeding stage of development, resulting in localized increases in temperature.

Preliminary Study on the Larval Development of Calliphora vicina (Diptera: Calliphoridae) on Different Types of Substrates Used as Reference in Forensic Entomology

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
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.

Spring Season Survey of the Urban Blowflies (Diptera: Calliphoridae) of Chicago, Illinois [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
During May 1980, 1165 blowflies of 12 species were trapped on chemically enhanced rat carrion baits in a dense urban setting in Chicago. In descending order, Cynomyopsis cadaverina, Lucilia sericata, and Phormia regina were the most abundant species ...

Community composition, abundance and activity‐density of carabids and staphylinids depend on prey abundance and adjacent habitat even in diverse agricultural landscapes

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Carabid and staphylinid communities are shaped by adjacent habitat type, prey availability and landscape context, influencing natural pest control across agricultural landscapes. Abstract BACKGROUND The functioning of agroecosystems depends on key ecosystem processes that deliver ecosystem services, yet agricultural management has increasingly shifted ...

Plasticity in parental care: Interspecific competitor cues shape biparental cooperation in a burying beetle

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Our study contributes to our understanding of the effects of interspecific competition in species with biparental care where male and female parents must somehow coordinate their response to interspecific competition. Abstract Interspecific competition is an important evolutionary driver of many species' life histories and behaviours, arising wherever ...

The correlation between wing kinematics and steering muscle activity in the blowfly Calliphora vicina [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Determining how the motor patterns of the nervous system are converted into the mechanical and behavioral output of the body is a central goal in the study of locomotion.

Fast temporal adaptation of on-off units in the first optic chiasm of the blowfly [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
We recorded from spiking units in the first optic chiasm between lamina and medulla in the brain of the blowfly (Calliphora vicina). Both previously characterized neuron types, on-off units and sustaining units, were encountered.
