Adult Blow Flies Host Diverse Carrion‐Associated Microbiomes

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
Blow flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae) perform important yet often overlooked roles in ecosystems as decomposers, pollinators and vectors of disease. Central to these functions are their associations with microbial communities, which are maintained through close contact with diverse microbe‐rich substrates such as carrion, dung and flowers.

Molecular Analysis of Forensically Important Blow Flies in Thailand

open access: yesInsects, 2018
Blow flies are the first insect group to colonize on a dead body and thus correct species identification is a crucial step in forensic investigations for estimating the minimum postmortem interval, as developmental times are species-specific.

Conspecific cueing or cooperative feeding?—Foraging stable flies are visually attracted to conspecific flies

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 512-529, September 2026.
In two‐choice laboratory bioassays, food‐deprived and CO2‐stimulated stable flies were offered paired landing platforms that were baited or not (control) with conspecific flies. The presence of conspecifics prompted the attraction and landing of foraging stable flies.

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

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 574-581, September 2026.
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 ...

Histopathological investigation of wound healing activities of Lucilia sericata Larva and Achillea sintenisii extract combinations in diabetic rat wound model

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 659-671, September 2026.
Lucilia sericata larvae secrete bioactive compounds that promote wound debridement and antimicrobial defence in chronic tissue injuries. Achillea sintenisii extract offers phytotherapeutic support, enhancing healing through anti‐inflammatory and regenerative properties. Diabetic Wistar rats were treated topically with Furacin®, larval secretions, plant

Postembryonic development of the predatory strike mechanics in a praying mantis (Insecta: Mantodea)

open access: yesPhysiological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 377-396, September 2026.
Praying mantis forelegs capture prey using specific kinematic and kinetic traits that change in size and morphology during postembryonic growth and sexual dimorphism influences these dynamics. Strike forces grow hyperallometrically with body weight; larger mantises show longer strike durations, slower joint angular velocities and increased tibia ...
