Silver gull carcasses host unique carrion insect communities on a nearshore island
Abstract Island ecosystems offer unique opportunities to study the dynamics of species that rely on ephemeral resources such as carrion. This study investigated the necrophagous insect communities associated with carrion of silver gulls (Chroicocephalus novaehollandiae) on a small nearshore island off the east coast of Australia, to assess how ...

Lords of the flies: dipteran migrants are diverse, abundant and ecologically important
ABSTRACT Insect migrants are hugely abundant, with recent studies identifying the megadiverse order Diptera as the major component of many migratory assemblages. Despite this, their migratory behaviour has been widely overlooked in favour of more ‘charismatic’ migrant insects such as butterflies, dragonflies, and moths.

Divergent Genetic Pathways Underlying Convergent Parasitic Behaviours in Blowflies
ABSTRACT Blowfly (Diptera: Calliphoridae) exhibit diverse feeding strategies, with most species developing on decomposing organic matter. However, parasitism has evolved within the family, and some species convergently gained the ability to explore the tissues of living vertebrate hosts, which imposes critical veterinary, medical, and agricultural ...

Carrion‐breeding flies of Australia and New Zealand: A review and key to adults
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.
