Species composition of blow flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae) colonizing pig carcasses exposed to bifenthrin‐ and clothianidin‐containing products

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
High clothianidin concentrations prevented colonization, while bifenthrin showed a non‐significant trend of reduced fly abundance, indicating both insecticides may suppress blow fly activity on treated carcasses. Adult emergence rates were unaffected, with no statistically significant differences observed across insecticide treatments, suggesting ...

An inquiry‐based activity to teach about insects of medico‐legal importance: Lessons from Redi's landmark experiment

open access: yesNatural Sciences Education, Volume 55, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract In this article, we describe an inquiry‐based teaching activity developed in a public high school in Brazil. The objectives were to (a) develop an experimental activity grounded on the students’ autonomy for formulating and testing hypotheses, (b) address Biology topics from a historical and multidisciplinary perspective, (c) stimulate skills ...

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.

Raman Signature of the Wings of the Globe Skimmer Dragonfly: Pantala flavescens

open access: yesJournal of Raman Spectroscopy, Volume 57, Issue 4, Page 578-588, April 2026.
Raman spectroscopy is used to confirm the presence of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons and related derivatives including aldehydes, halides, alcohols, acids, esters, and phenols on the wings of Pantala flavescens. The analysis indicates that wing‐surface lipid composition is largely consistent across the three main ecological zones in Ghana. Notably,

A Regional DNA Barcode Library for Northern Rocky Mountain Arthropods to Support Biodiversity and Molecular Ecological Research

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
We developed the MPG Ranch Arthropod Library (MPG‐AL), a COI DNA barcode reference library for arthropods of the Northern Rocky Mountains, to address gaps in barcode coverage for the western United States. From 86,533 specimens collected in Montana, we generated 52,270 DNA barcodes spanning 38 orders and 1793 species, adding 5154 Barcode Index Numbers (

A Cross‐Disciplinary Analysis of AI Policies in Academic Peer Review

open access: yesLearned Publishing, Volume 39, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Rapid advances of artificial intelligence (AI) have substantially impacted the field of academic publishing. This study examines AI integration in peer review by analysing policies from 439 high‐ and 363 middle‐impact factor (IF) journals across disciplines. Using grounded theory, we identify patterns in AI policy adoption. Results show 83% of

Increasing Targeted Poaching of Lions for Trade Has the Potential to Pose an Existential Threat to the Species in Africa

open access: yesConservation Letters, Volume 19, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT Lions (Panthera leo) in Africa are targeted for the illegal wildlife trade, driven by demand in African and Asian markets, for their body parts. This threat is distinct from traditional drivers of lion decline such as prey depletion, habitat loss, and persecution and is poorly understood, underreported, growing, and prone to the influence of ...

Phylogenomics and the evolution of larval feeding habits in the blow flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae)

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
Phylogenomic data from anchored hybrid enrichment provide a new phylogeny of Calliphoridae that delimits the family and confirms division into eight monophyletic subfamilies. Fossil‐calibrated divergence times place the origin of Calliphoridae in the mid‐Eocene (ca. 41 Mya) along with other rapidly radiating families of oestroid Diptera. Reconstruction
