Abstract Sarcophaga peregrina (Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830), a synanthropic flesh fly species
found in different parts of the world, is of medical and forensic importance. Traditional …

The composition and quantity of insect cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) can be species-
specific as well as sexually dimorphic within species. CHC analysis has been previously …

A species-specific complex mixture of highly stable cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) covers
the external surface of all insects. Components can be readily analyzed by gas …

Age determination is the basis of determining the postmortem interval using necrophagous
fly larvae. To explore the potential of using cuticular hydrocarbons for determining the ages …

Simple Summary Constant and fluctuating temperatures can affect the growth and
development of insects, which will affect the accuracy of minimum postmortem interval …

Larvae of Sarcophaga (Curranea) tibialis (S. tibialis) were reared at constant temperature on
chicken liver treated with a steroid or a barbiturate at concentrations that would be lethal …

The external surface of all insects is covered by a species-specific complex mixture of highly
stable, very long chain cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs). Gas chromatography coupled to …

The flies of the Sarcophagidae, widespread throughout the temperate zone, are of great
significance in Medicine, Veterinary science, Forensics and Entomotoxicology. Lipids are …

Chrysomya albiceps (Wiedemann 1819) is one of the most important insects in forensic
entomology. Its larval developmental and survival rates are influenced by nutritional …

Calliphoridae are one of the most important insect groups encountered as evidence
