Progeny of the flesh fly Sarcophaga bullata exposed to short day length show a maternal effect that prevents the expression of pupal diapause. Although ecological aspects of this effect are well studied, not enough is known about the molecular mechanisms

Tachinidae (Diptera) as Floral Visitors and Pollinators in Natural and Managed Systems
We review the roles of bristle flies (Tachinidae) as pollinators in natural and managed systems. We find that most tachinid genera visit flowers and that floral‐adapted mouthparts have evolved repeatedly many times in the family. We review patterns of floral specificity and assess the efficacy of tachinids as pollinators with case studies.

Artificial light at night (ALAN) affects plant–pollinator interactions through taxon‐specific changes in pollinator visitation. Reduced Lepidoptera visitation restructures nocturnal pollination networks by decreasing nestedness and increasing modularity, whereas shifts in daytime pollinator assemblages increase connectance in diurnal pollination ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of Sarcophaga angarosinica (Diptera: Sarcophagidae)
Sarcophaga (Liosarcophaga) angarosinica (Rohdendorf, 1937) (Diptera: Sarcophagidae) is a species of both medical and ecological significance. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of S. angarosinica was sequenced and characterized.

Abstract The more than 360 species of stem‐succulent stapeliads in the tribe Ceropegieae represent a perfect example for species radiation and diversification in response to pollination by flies. In the majority of species, the myiophilous flowers have visual and olfactory characteristics that suggest carrion or dung mimicry.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Sarcophaga tuberosa (Diptera: Sarcophagidae)
Sarcophaga tuberosa has certain sanitary and epidemiological significance and takes proteins from decaying matter. In this study, we first sequenced and analyzed the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of S. tuberosa.

Abstract Scavengers play a key role in recycling animal biomass, yet the relative contributions of insects and vertebrates to this process remain poorly understood. Moreover, understanding whether one scavenger group can compensate for the absence of another is critical for predicting how carrion decomposition may respond to changes in community ...
