Divergent Genetic Pathways Underlying Convergent Parasitic Behaviours in Blowflies

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 11, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Blowfly (Diptera: Calliphoridae) exhibit diverse feeding strategies, with most species developing on decomposing organic matter. However, parasitism has evolved within the family, and some species convergently gained the ability to explore the tissues of living vertebrate hosts, which imposes critical veterinary, medical, and agricultural ...

Epidemiological Insights Into Human Myiasis in Iran: A Comprehensive Systematic Review

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Introduction: Myiasis is a condition characterized by the infestation of tissues and organs in humans and other vertebrates with the larvae of certain fly species. It poses a significant medical and public health concern for humans and is also an economic burden for a wide range of domestic and wild animals in tropical and subtropical regions.

On the distribution and habitat use of the sub‐Antarctic fly Hyadesimyia clausa Bigot (Diptera, Tachinidae) according to citizen science

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2024.
Citizen science can fill the gaps in scientific knowledge for rare invertebrate species such as Hyadesimyia clausa. According to citizen science records, distribution increased from locality type to north and west of the Magallanes Region, we confirmed the use of peatlands and suggested potential biological interaction with vascular plants and mosses ...
