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. .

Forensic Entomology in China and Its Challenges [PDF]
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]
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 ...

Is Forensic Entomology Lost in Space? [PDF]
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.

The Forensic Entomology Case Report—A Global Perspective [PDF]
Forensic practitioners analyzing entomological evidence are faced with numerous challenges when presenting their findings to law practitioners, particularly in terms of terminology used to describe insect age, what this means for colonization time of ...

The Contribution of Molecular Biology to Forensic Entomology [PDF]
This review presents an in-depth analysis of the synergistic role of molecular biology in advancing forensic entomology. The study discusses how insects associated with decomposing bodies provide critical data for estimating the post-mortem interval (PMI)

The Pitfalls in the Path of Probabilistic Inference in Forensic Entomology: A Review [PDF]
To bridge the gap between experimentation and the court of law, studies in forensic entomology and other forensic sciences have to comply with a set of experimental rules to generate probabilistic inference of quality.

Automated Individual-Level ROI-to-Spectrum Extraction for Hyperspectral Analysis in Forensic Entomology [PDF]
Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) has potential for forensic entomology, but its practical use is limited by manual region-of-interest (ROI) delineation before spectral extraction.
