Cold storage effects on immature calliphoridae: Survival limits and forensic consequences for PMI estimation

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract 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

Development modeling of Lucilia sericata (Diptera: Calliphoridae) [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2015
The relationship between insect development and temperature has been well established and has a wide range of uses, including the use of blow flies for postmortem (PMI) interval estimations in death investigations.

First record of the forensically important genus Protopiophila Duda (Diptera: Piophilidae) from South Korea and an integrative framework for forensic identification

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract The family Piophilidae is of significant forensic importance due to its association with late‐stage decomposition; however, the Korean piophilid fauna remains poorly studied, lacking comprehensive morphological and molecular data. This study reports the first record of the genus Protopiophila Duda from South Korea.

Records of Chrysomya albiceps in Northern Italy: an ecological and forensic perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

The first case of forensic entomology applied to a roadkill dog carcass in the Colombian Andes

open access: yes, 2021
An uncommon case of forensic entomology applied to a roadkill animal is detailed; the minimum period of insect activity (PIAmin: 72 h) and the postmortem interval (PMI: 48 h) were calculated.

Large carrion beetles (Coleoptera, Silphidae) in Western Europe: a review [PDF]

open access: yesBiotechnologie, Agronomie, Société et Environnement, 2011
This review focuses on carrion beetles (Coleoptera, Silphidae) of the Western Palearctic and their potential use in forensic entomology as bioindicators. Few studies have looked at Silphidae in forensic context and investigations. However, some Silphidae

Determining the utility of radio frequency identification (RFID) technology for disaster victim identification (DVI)

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Radio frequency identification (RFID) technology was evaluated as a method for electronically tracking human remains and associated identifying information during mass fatality incidents. Conventional tags are prone to physical damage and failure, which can compromise identification processes and hinder the repatriation of bodies.

Hair Degradation Patterns in Aquatic and Soil Environments

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hair is a biological material that can provide information in archaeology and forensics. Previous studies have mainly examined changes occurring post‐mortem. In this study, we focused on hair pulled out ante‐mortem. The aim of the study was to identify patterns in the degradation of hair in water and soil.

Comparative Study of Laboratory Diets for Piophila casei: Beneficial Effects of Infant Formula Supplementation

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
The infant formula‐based diet (F), the whole powder milk diet (P), and dry‐cured ham (H) were evaluated for rearing Piophila casei. H accelerated development, promoted earlier reproduction, and achieved the highest demographic performance but showed practical limitations linked to substrate deterioration. F enhanced larval survival and adult longevity,
