The complete mitochondrial genome of Sarcophaga caudagalli (Diptera: Sarcophagidae)
Sarcophaga caudagalli belonging to the Sarcophagidae is significant for medical and veterinary management. The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of S. caudagalli was first sequenced and annotated.

Primer registro de miasis (diptera: sarcophagidae) en anuros de leptodactylidae (amphibia)
Esta nota es el primer registro de ocurrencia de miasis generada por moscas Sarcophagidae en anuro de la familia Leptodactylidae. El anfibio, identificado como Leptodactylus latrans (Steffen, 1815), fue recolectado en el bioma Mata Atlântica, en el sur ...

Insecticides alter wild and managed pollination dynamics on oil crop yield
Our results show that combining honey bee hives with insecticide use does not automatically enhance crop yield. Pollination outcomes are strongly scale‐ and context‐dependent, with wild pollinators providing disproportionately important services. Agricultural management should therefore prioritize integrated strategies that reduce pesticide pressure ...

Catalog of the Calliphoridae, Rhiniidae, and Sarcophagidae of Egypt (Diptera: Oestroidea)
Oestroidea is a diverse superfamily of flies with a variety of feeding habits, mostly saprophages (e.g., majority of species of the genus Sarcophaga, Sarcophagidae), internal parasites of mammals (e.g., Oestridae), parasitoids (e.g., the genus ...

Recovery of male DNA acquired from carrion‐feeding insects in a simulated sexual assault scenario
Abstract When bodies of sexual assault victims are discovered in advanced stages of decomposition, the recovery of direct DNA evidence is often compromised, posing a challenge in criminal investigations. This study aimed to determine insect colonization and succession patterns on pig carcasses inoculated with semen and to assess the feasibility of ...

Insects and Survival: A Review of Primary and Secondary Defense Strategies
Based on a review of three decades of literature, insect defense mechanisms are classified into primary (I) and secondary (II) mechanisms of behavioral, morphological, and chemical nature. These mechanisms have been recorded in 22 (I) and 20 (II) orders, respectively.

Abstract Floral mimicry of decaying substrates of animal origin, such as carrion or faeces, is associated with unusual traits such as geoflory, deep maroon or yellow colouration, floral hairs and unpleasant odour, but the functional significance of these traits for attracting and manipulating pollinators has seldom been examined.

The parasitic behaviour of Amobia distorta and the defensive behaviour of its hosts, Anterhynchium flavomarginatum (native species) and A. gibbifrons (probably non‐native), were observed. Abstract Two Anterhynchium species, A. flavomarginatum and A. gibbifrons, are solitary tube‐renting eumenine wasps that occur sympatrically in Japan.
