Ecdysteroid receptors of the blowfly Calliphora vicina [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1989 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.

Neuromuscular control of aerodynamic forces and moments in the blowfly,Calliphora vicina [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2004 SUMMARYFlies are among the most agile of flying insects, a capacity that ultimately results from their nervous system's control over steering muscles and aerodynamic forces during flight. In order to investigate the relationships among neuromuscular control, musculo-skeletal mechanics and flight forces, we captured high-speed, three-dimensional wing ...

Incorporation of calliphorin into the cuticle of the developing blowfly, Calliphora vicina
Roux's Archives of Developmental Biology, 1986 The stage-specific appearance of calliphorin in cuticles of Calliphora vicina was analysed by sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and immunoblotting. The fate of the protein, injected into last instar larvae, was pursued by autoradiography of histological sections.

Postembryonic development of the predatory strike mechanics in a praying mantis (Insecta: Mantodea)
Physiological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 377-396, September 2026.Praying mantis forelegs capture prey using specific kinematic and kinetic traits that change in size and morphology during postembryonic growth and sexual dimorphism influences these dynamics. Strike forces grow hyperallometrically with body weight; larger mantises show longer strike durations, slower joint angular velocities and increased tibia ...

Journal of Advanced Research in Natural and Applied Sciences, 2023 Insects function as a biological clock in determining the time elapsed after death which is also called minimum postmortem interval (PMImin). Particularly, Calliphoridae family members are the first colonizers.

Expansion of invasive carabids across elevation and habitats on sub‐Antarctic South Georgia
Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 4, Page 812-827, July 2026.Two introduced carabid species have continued to expand their ranges on the sub‐Antarctic island of South Georgia over the past 10–15 years. The species have colonised inland valleys and are present across habitats but are more abundant in those with high vegetation cover. N‐mixture models revealed the optimal sampling method, intensity and habitat for
