Visión en Lucilia sericata (meigen, 1826) (diptera: calliphoridae) : experimentos comportamentales y electrofisiológicos
Lucilia sericata (Diptera: Calliphoridade) es una mosca copronecrófaga, de gran importancia a nivel médico, veterinario, forense y ecológico por su papel en procesos de descomposición. En insectos diurnos, la visión al igual que el olfato es fundamental para ubicarse espacialmente. En este trabajo …

Examining external morphological characteristics of Lucilia sericata pupae for age estimation in medico-legal investigations
… to aid in a more accurate age estimation of Lucilia sericata during the pupal stage. A total of 145 pupae were collected and examined for external morphological changes over time. Five pupae were collected at each time point. A total of six external morphological characteristics of the …

Identification of morphologically similar species of necrophagous flies (diptera: calliphoridae) in Oklahoma : reliability and application of techniques in a forensic setting.
… genetic identification of three blowfly species (Lucilia cuprina, Lucilia sericata, and Lucilia mexicana) sampled from eight different locations within Oklahoma and one island location off of the coast of New Hampshire. A 308 basepair amplicon within the cytochrome oxidase I gene of mitochondrial …

DNA barcoding of forensically important blow flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae) within the Western Cape of South Africa
… (n = 7), Hemipyrellia fernandica (n = 1), Lucilia cuprina (n = 8) and Lucilia sericata (n = 9). This data was combined with that from Cooke et al. (2018) (n = 40), and subjected to rigorous statistical and phylogenetic analyses. Phylogenetic analysis which combined data for both COI and …

A CONTRIBUTION TO THE STUDY OF BIOCONTROL AGENTS APITHERAPY AND OTHER POTENTIAL ALTERNATIVES TO ANTIBIOTICS
… ability), was provided to support the use of Lucilia sericata maggot to control fungi involved in superficial fungal infections, i.e. fungal burn wound infections and dermatomycoses. A study was made to determine if Mycoplasmas can be detected in the hemolymph of maggots of Calliphora …

Sex Chromosome Evolution in Blow Flies
… species used in this study are Phormia regina, Lucilia cuprina, Chrysomya rufifacies and Chrysomya albiceps. Phormia regina,and Lucilia cuprina have a heteromorphic sex chromosome system and are amphogenic (females produce both male and female offspring in equal ratio). In contrast, Chrysomya …

Alteration of bloodstain patterns by Diptera: objective analysis based on Wonder’s 2001 criteria.
… of its total artefacts, Hydrotaea 31.1% and Lucilia 29.1%, suggesting that artefact deposition /bloodstain pattern alteration by Diptera may occur significantly more in areas of light ingress. Moreover, in the tested window area, all five artefact categories (Calliphora, Lucilia, Hydrotaea, …

Carrion-associated arthropods in rural and urban environments
… habitat type, month, and stage of decomposition. Lucilia sericata (Diptera: Calliphoridae) is a synanthropic species that was found in higher numbers in urban locations for both adults and larvae. Though L. sericata had higher numbers in urban habitats, caution must be exercised when using the …

Modelling the Thermodynamics of Maggot Masses during Decomposition
… aggregations (50-2500 larvae) composed solely of Lucilia sericata (Meigen, 1826)(Diptera: Calliphoridae) larvae were reared in the laboratory at a constant ambient temperature of 22 °C (±1 °C). Data loggers and a thermal imaging camera were used to record mass temperatures throughout the feeding …
