Calliphora vicina Another invasive blowfly species in South Africa is the European species Calliphora vicina Meigen. C. vicina was first recorded in South Africa in 1965, when a specimen was collected in Johannesburg, and again in 1967 and 1969, in Benoni near Johannesburg International Airport.

Unexpected Evolutionary Divergence of Tachykinin-Positive Neurons Innervating the Central Complex in Hexapods. [PDF]
The central complex is a group of midline‐spanning neuropils in the brain of insects with a key role in goal‐directed orientation and navigation. Immunolabeling in 25 species, ranging from bristletails to flies, shows that neurons containing peptides of the tachykinin family of neuropeptides are present in most species studied.

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.

Do longer sequences improve the accuracy of identification of forensically important Calliphoridae species? [PDF]
Species identification is a crucial step in forensic entomology. In several cases the calculation of the larval age allows the estimation of the minimum Post-Mortem Interval (mPMI).

Ecdysteroid receptors of the blowfly Calliphora vicina [PDF]
Ecdysteroids, the molting hormones of arthropods, act like vertebrate steroid hormones by binding to an intracellular receptor protein. We have recently isolated a protein from nuclei of blowfly larvae which has satisfied the requirements of an ecdysteroid receptor.

A novel strain sensor based on the campaniform sensillum of insects. [PDF]
The functional design of the campaniform sensillum was modelled as a hole in a plate using two– and three–dimensional finite–element modelling. Different shapes of opening in a fibrous composite plate amplify differently the global strains imposed on the
