Forensic Sciences Research, 2018 For many members of the forensic community, insects still have an exotic status. This may be one reason why forensic entomology, the analysis of insect evidence for forensic and legal purposes, has not yet achieved the significance it deserves in forensic sciences. The present special issue may help to change that.

Is Forensic Entomology Lost in Space? [PDF]
Insects, 2021 Spatial and scale effects have barely been considered in forensic entomology, despite their pervasive influence on most of the parameters affecting the development of insect larval stages and the progression of insect succession on cadavers.

Forensic Entomology in China and Its Challenges [PDF]
Insects, 2021 While the earliest record of forensic entomology originated in China, related research did not start in China until the 1990s. In this paper, we review the recent research progress on the species identification, temperature-dependent development, faunal ...

The Relationship between Research and Casework in Forensic Entomology [PDF]
Insects, 2021 Research is a vital component of all forensic sciences and is often stimulated by casework, which identifies gaps in our knowledge. In such a niche area of forensic science as entomology there should be a close and mutually beneficial relationship ...

Wings on concealed corpse: the forensic importance of scuttle flies (Diptera: Phoridae) [PDF]
Frontiers in Insect ScienceForensic entomology focuses on insects associated with decomposing remains to provide clues for forensic investigations. Among those insects, scuttle flies are uniquely capable of colonizing enclosed spaces and underground burial sites where other ...
