Food preferences of adult male and female Calliphora vicina (Diptera: Calliphoridae)

Canadian Society of Forensic Science Journal
Male and female adults of Calliphora vicina (Robineau-Desvoidy) (Diptera: Calliphoridae) were exposed to different food sources and their food preferences were assessed.

Maternal induction of larval diapause in the blowefly, Calliphora vicina

Journal of Insect Physiology, 1972
Abstract Diapause induction in the larvae of Calliphora vicina is under maternal control and is determined by a maternally operated photoperiod. This blowfly is a long-day insect and its critical daylength lies between 15 and 16 hr of light per day.

Influence of food substrates on the development of the blowflies Calliphora vicina and Calliphora vomitoria (Diptera, Calliphoridae)

Parasitology Research, 2013
The blowflies Calliphora vicina and Calliphora vomitoria are among the first colonizers of human remains in Europe. Laboratory development studies with immature stages of these blowflies for postmortem interval (PMI) calculations are generally performed on different media such as processed food substrates or liver of various animals.

Life Tables for Musca vicina and Calliphora erythrocephala.

Proceedings of the Zoological Society of London, 1946
SUMMARY.Life tables for the imago of Musca vicina and Calliphora erythrocephala were compiled from flies kept under controlled conditions. Musca were fed on diluted milk and Calliphora on 10% sugar solution and chicken liver.In Musca females are slightly longer lived than males and the contrary is true for Calliphora.The survivorship curves, and more ...

Phenoloxidases in larval cuticle of the blowfly, Calliphora vicina

Insect Biochemistry, 1981
Three different phenoloxidases have been purified from the cuticle of mature larvae of the blowfly, Calliphora vicina. Enzyme A is a typical tyrosinase (EC 1.10.3.1., o-diphenol: O2 oxidoreductase). It oxidizes both monophenols and o-diphenols, is inactive towards p-diphenols, and is readily inhibited by thiourea and phenylthiourea. Enzymes B and C are

Differential responses of adult Calliphora vicina to dry bloodstains on porous versus non-porous surface materials.

Forensic Science International, 2021
Necrophagous flies are presumed to feed on wet and dried blood at crime scenes, but no empirical information exists detailing fly interactions with dried bloodstains.

Manipulating larval rearing media to optimise mass production of the blow fly Calliphora vicina (Diptera: Calliphoridae)

Austral Entomology
The oviparous blow fly Calliphora vicina has shown potential as a managed pollinator to support honeybee (Apis mellifera) usage in Australian horticulture. A series of three laboratory‐based studies reared newly hatched larvae of C.

A comparison of drying patterns between insect stains created by the blue blow fly, Calliphora vicina and human bloodstains.

Forensic Science International
We examined the drying characteristics of insect stains produced by the blow fly Calliphora vicina following ingestion of human blood using image analysis of stains deposited or produced on non-porous ceramic tile.
