Insects select flight speeds that coincide with low metabolic energy expenditureInsects select flight speeds that coincide with low metabolic energy expenditure [PDF]
Royal Society Open ScienceAerodynamic theory predicts a U-shaped relationship between mechanical power and airspeed. Empirical data from birds and bats support a similar U-shaped metabolic power–speed curve, reflecting the underlying muscle mechanics.

A new and earlier record of Chrysomya megacephala in South Africa, with notes on another exotic species, Calliphora vicina (Diptera Calliphoridae) [PDF]
, 2006 South African records of Chrysomya megacephala and Calliphora vicina are reviewed and plotted on maps. Dispersal routes of these two forensically and medically important blowfly species are discussed. Emphasised is the importance of deposition of voucher

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2025.Fat body (FB) acts as a major metabolic center important for the regulation of a variety of physiological processes such as embryogenesis, reproduction, flight, overwintering, protection, and communication. Lipid amounts and fatty acid (FA) composition vary with species, stage of life, and their diet.

Smaakonderscheiding en neurale kodering in de blauwe vleesvlieg, Calliphora vicina [PDF]
, 1980 The subject of this thesis is the discrimination of taste substances and the neural coding of gustatory information in the labellar taste organ of the blowfly Calliphora vicina Robineau-Desvoidy. This organ consists of about 260 taste hairs.

Versatile roles of disordered transcription factor effector domains in transcriptional regulation
The FEBS Journal, Volume 292, Issue 12, Page 3014-3033, June 2025.Disordered effector domains (EDs) of transcription factors (TFs) play versatile roles in transcriptional regulation. These include mediating protein–protein interactions with protein complexes like, facilitating condensate formation to enhance transcriptional efficiency, modulating DNA‐binding specificity through genome scanning, and serving as hubs ...

Carrion‐breeding flies of Australia and New Zealand: A review and key to adults
Austral Entomology, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2025.Abstract Carrion‐breeding flies are diverse with over 70 species in the Australasian/Oceanian region, predominantly from the families Calliphoridae and Sarcophagidae. These flies play crucial roles in ecosystems as primary decomposers, pollinators and food sources for a variety of predators and parasites.

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 39, Issue 1, Page 14-21, March 2025.A servosphere was used to record the speed, directionality and phototaxis of individual post‐feeding larvae of two species of blow fly (Diptera: Calliphoridae) on a smooth plastic surface over time. The servosphere rotates to compensate for the movement of an insect placed at its apex, thereby facilitating its unimpeded locomotion in any direction and ...
