Novel use of a servosphere to study apodous insects: Investigation of blow fly post-feeding larval dispersal. [PDF]
Med Vet EntomolA 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 ...

Do longer sequences improve the accuracy of identification of forensically important Calliphoridae species? [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 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).
