Coexistence and intraguild competition of Chrysomya albiceps and Lucilia sericata larvae: case reports and experimental studies applied to forensic entomology.

Acta Tropica, 2021
The larval development of Chrysomya albiceps and Lucilia sericata is a well-known and valuable tool for estimating the postmortem interval (PMI). The third instar larvae of Ch.

Infancy Urogenital Myiasis: A Case Report [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Medical Sciences
Myiasis is a parasitic infestation of fly larvae caused by dipterous larvae that live in the host’s dead or living tissues. This study reported the first case of urogenital myiasis in infants from Iran caused by Lucilia sericata. The 10-month-old boy was

Developmental differences in spatially distinct populations of the forensically relevant blow fly Lucilia sericata - About the comparability of developmental studies (and case work application).

Forensic Science International
The cosmopolitan blow fly Lucilia sericata is often used in forensic case work for estimating the minimum postmortem interval (PMImin). For this, the age of immature specimens developing on the dead body is calculated by measuring the time taken to reach

[Molecular Characterization of Lucimycin Gene of Lucilia sericata].

Mikrobiyoloji bulteni, 2020
Lucilia sericata, a member of the Calliphoridae family, is one of the most common species in the genus Lucilia. Medical importance of L.sericata stems from its use in maggot debridement therapy (MDT). MDT is the name of L.sericata larvae being sterilized and used in the treatment of non-healing wounds.

Maggot metabolites and their combinatory effects with antibiotic on Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]

, 2011
Background Maggot therapy has been in practice for effective debridement, disinfection and healing of chronic wounds. Due to their antiseptic action during wound healing, their metabolites have been investigated in the past for antibacterial ...

Physiological Races of Lucilia sericata, Mg [PDF]

Nature, 1936
RATCLIFFE1 has recently suggested that there may possibly be two physiological races of L. sericata, as the length of the pupal period of this insect at 32°C. in Scotland is 5.4 days while in France at the same temperature it is 8 days. This latter figure is quoted from a paper by Davies2 who, in turn, is only quoting the work of Cousin3 in France ...

The effect of bacterially-dense environments on the development and immune defences of the blowfly Lucilia sericata [PDF]

, 2010
Competitive interactions between insects and microbes and the associated cost of development in bacterially-dense environments are investigated using the blowfly Lucilia sericata (Meigen) (Diptera: Calliphoridae) as a model.

Morphological changes of larvae and pupae of Lucilia sericata (Diptera: Calliphoridae) reared at two temperatures and on three food types

Journal of medical entomology
Determining the minimum postmortem interval (minPMI) from an entomological perspective relies mainly on development data recorded for various species of flies collected from a crime scene or suspicious death.
