Records of Chrysomya albiceps in Northern Italy: an ecological and forensic perspective [PDF]
, 2009 Knowledge of the carrion-breeding insects present at a local level is important and necessary for defining the post-mortem interval. Climate changes and globalisation are affecting species ranges and population dynamics.

Density Underpins Shifts From Competition to Facilitation in Co-Invading Blowflies. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe performed species interactions experiments on > 1900 individuals of co‐occurring invasive blowflies. We found that interaction outcomes varied by species, suggesting that competitive outcomes for co‐invaders are strongly shaped by both density and species balance.

Cold storage effects on immature calliphoridae: Survival limits and forensic consequences for PMI estimation. [PDF]
J Forensic SciAbstract This study investigated the effects of continuous refrigeration (4°C ± 2°C and 50% ± 5% RH) on the development and survival of immature stages (eggs, first, second, and third instar larvae, and pupae) of four forensically important blowfly species (Chrysomya megacephala, Chrysomya putoria, Hemilucilia segmentaria, and Lucilia cuprina) compared

Wound Myiasis in Diabetic Foot Ulcer: Calliphoridae and Sarcophagidae Family
Iranian Journal of Parasitology, 2021 Background: Myiasis is a parasitic infestation of tissues or body cavities of mammals with dipterous larvae. The patients with diabetic foot ulcers are more vulnerable to acquiring infestation; however, the infestation may be neglected and mistreated in ...
