Phylogenomics and the evolution of larval feeding habits in the blow flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae)

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
Phylogenomic data from anchored hybrid enrichment provide a new phylogeny of Calliphoridae that delimits the family and confirms division into eight monophyletic subfamilies. Fossil‐calibrated divergence times place the origin of Calliphoridae in the mid‐Eocene (ca. 41 Mya) along with other rapidly radiating families of oestroid Diptera. Reconstruction

Wound Myiasis in a Flamingo (Phoenicopterus ruber) Caused by Calliphora spp. Larvae from Northwest of Iran: A Case Report

open access: yesIranian Journal of Parasitology, 2018
Myiasis is the infestation of animals or man tissues by parasitic dipterous fly larvae. Wound myiasis is the result of fly egg deposition on decaying flesh or pus discharging wounds. This case report describes a type of wound myiasis caused by Calliphora

Delayed reception of live blowfly (Calliphora vicina and Chrysomya rufifacies) larval samples: implications for minimum postmortem interval estimates

open access: yesForensic Sciences Research, 2018
Forensic entomology evidence collected by police and mortuary staff may be delayed in getting to the entomologist. Live samples may continue developing and alter minimum postmortem interval (PMImin) estimates.

The control of wing kinematics and flight forces in fruit flies (Drosophila spp.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
By simultaneously measuring flight forces and stroke kinematics in several species of fruit flies in the genus Drosophila, we have investigated the relationship between wing motion and aerodynamic force production. We induced tethered flies to vary their

Advice on animal and public health risks of insects reared on former foodstuffs as raw material for animal feed

open access: yesFood Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract In the coming decades, there is expected to be a sharply increased demand for dietary proteins for humans and animals. As a result, there is an increasing focus on reared insects as a new source of protein. According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality (LNV), the use of food chain residual flows such as former foodstuffs as

Cutaneous myiasis in cats and dogs: Cases, predisposing conditions and risk factors

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, 2021
Two cases of cutaneous myiasis diagnosed in 2018 in Emilia‐Romagna region (northern Italy) were reported. The first one, described in a domestic cat Felis silvestris catus L. (Carnivora: Felidae) and caused by Calliphora vicina Robineau‐Desvoidy (Diptera:

Winter Temperature Affects Fatty Acid Composition and Gene Expression, but Not Fat Content and Survival in a Northern Population of a Range‐Expanding Spider

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
This study provides insight into the performance of a range‐expanding species and the physiological and molecular mechanisms underlying thermal tolerance at its expanding edge. ABSTRACT Species expand their geographic distribution when environmental conditions are favorable or when mutations arise that allow them to live in previously unfavorable ...

Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of the New Zealand parasitic blowfly Calliphora vicina (Insecta: Diptera: Calliphoridae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021
In this study, the complete mitochondrial (mt) genome of the New Zealand parasitic blowfly Calliphora vicina (blue bottle blowfly) field strain NZ_CalVic_NP was generated using next-generation sequencing technology and annotated.
