Development, growth and metabolic rate of Hermetia illucens larvae [PDF]

Journal of Applied Entomology, 2019
AbstractThe larvae of Hermetia illucens are known to successfully bio‐convert a vast range of organic substrates into high protein and fat biomass, but little is known about the larval instars. During this research, larval head capsules and biomass growth were measured daily and the specific metabolic rate of larger instars were considered.

Preventing the next invasion: Lessons from aquaculture for the safe expansion of insect farming

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 2, February 2026.
We argue that preemptive risk assessments, species screening and transferable, adaptive regulatory frameworks developed for aquaculture offer a critical foundation for safeguarding against insect#x02010;driven invasions. Proactive governance that embeds these safeguards before large#x02010;scale expansion offers a rare opportunity to prevent invasion ...

Voracious larvae Hermetia illucens and treatment of selected types of biodegradable waste

Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2013
This report is focused on the ability of larvae Hermetia illucens (Diptera: Stratiomyidae) to consume different types of biodegradable waste. Waste was selected in groups 02, 19 a 20 according to the Waste Catalogue (in Decree No.

Growth rates of black soldier fly larvae fed on fresh human faeces and their implication for improving sanitation.

, 2013
OBJECTIVES: To determine the capacity of black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) (Hermetia illucens) to convert fresh human faeces into larval biomass under different feeding regimes, and to determine how effective BSFL are as a means of human faecal waste ...

Have the environmental benefits of insect farming been overstated? A critical review

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 163-194, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Insect farming is frequently promoted as a sustainable food solution, yet current evidence challenges many environmental benefits claimed by industry proponents. This review critically examines the scientific foundation for assessing the environmental impacts of insect farming in both human food and animal feed applications.

Adult black soldier fly meal (imago, Hermetia illucens) as replacement for fish meal in diets for Pacific Whiteleg shrimp (Penaeus vannamei)

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Adult black soldier flies (imagines, Hermetia illucens) are a by‐product of large‐scale insect larvae production. The suitability of this novel sidestream as a protein source in diets for juvenile Whiteleg shrimp (Penaeus vannamei, initial weight 5–6 g) was investigated in controlled feeding experiments in recirculating aquaculture systems ...
