Competition among invasive and endemic carrion fly species in the Galapagos Islands with implications for biological control risk assessment

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 17, Issue 3, Page 409-418, May 2024.
Introduced fly dominance: The Galapagos necrobiome is dominated by introduced carrion flies, with Peckia chrysostoma as the most abundant species, outcompeting native and endemic species. Endemic fly vulnerability: Endemic and native carrion flies, like Sarothromyiops dasycnemis, face competition and potential displacement by introduced species ...

Pollen associated with a Texas population of blow flies‐(Diptera: Calliphoridae) highlights underappreciated aspects of their biology

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 215-224, April 2024.
Although some blow flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae) pollinate several crops and can digest pollen, it is uncertain if pollen collection by blow flies is a common strategy for protein acquisition. We surveyed pollen in blow fly guts to determine whether they (a) consume pollen, and if so, what types; (b) exhibit species‐specific pollen use and (c ...

Use of thermal drone in detection and assessment of larval mass temperature in decomposed rabbit carcasses

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, Volume 69, Issue 2, Page 542-553, March 2024.
Abstract Manual ground searches and cadaver dogs are traditional methods for locating remains, but they can be time‐ and resource‐intensive, resulting in the decomposition of bodies and delay in victim identification. Therefore, thermal imaging has been proposed as a potentially useful tool for detecting remains based on their temperature.
