Forensic Entomology and the Estimation of the Minimum Time Since Death in Indoor Cases.
Abstract Eight cases that occurred indoors in which the insects played an important role in the mPMI estimation are presented. The bodies of socially isolated people and old people living alone were discovered in central Italy between June and November. mPMI ranged from a few days to several weeks. Insects were collected during the body recovery and the postmortem. Climatic data were obtained from the closest meteorological stations and from measurements performed on the site. Sarcophagidae and Calliphoridae species were present in 75% of the cases with Lucilia sericata and Chrysomya albiceps collected in 50% of t...

Morphology and Developmental Rate of the Blow Fly, Hemipyrellia ligurriens (Diptera: Calliphoridae): Forensic Entomology Applications.
In this study, we determined the morphology of all stages and the developmental rate of H. ligurriens reared under natural ambient conditions in Phitsanulok province, northern Thailand. Morphological features of all stages based on observing under a light microscope were described and demonstrated in order to use for identification purpose. Moreover, development time in each stage was given. The developmental time of H. ligurriens to complete metamorphosis; from egg, larva, pupa to adult, took 270.71 h for 1 cycle of development. The results from this study may be useful not only for application in forensic investigation...

New forensic entomology observations expand knowledge of decomposition ecology
(Entomological Society of America) A new study published in the Journal of Medical Entomology shows that insects that have not been previously associated with human corpses actually interact with dead human bodies, which may provide clues for forensic entomologists in the future.

Scorpionflies and Caterpillars in Forensic Entomology
Annapolis, MD: January 22, 2015 -- Fans of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation and similar TV shows know that forensic entomology involves the use of insects and other arthropods in legal matters, including homicide cases. Entomologists who are properly trained can find clues about a corpse -- for example, time of death and whether a body has been moved -- by observing the insects on and around it. read more

Do necrophagous blowflies (Diptera: Calliphoridae) lay their eggs in wounds? Experimental data and implications for forensic entomology
This study investigate the factors that affect the oviposition sites of Lucilia sericata (Diptera: Calliphoridae) (Meigen, 1826), a very common blow fly species of forensic interest. Blowflies (Diptera: Calliphoridae) have an highly developed olfactory system that allows them to detect corpses at a great distance [1–4]. It is frequently reported in forensic entomology manuals that once on the cadaver, blowflies lay their eggs in natural orifices and wounds [5–10]. The presence of other eggs, larvae or adult individuals can also act as an attractive signal to gravid females and can increase the likelihood of ovipositio...
