Zajac *, Jens Amendt, Marcel A. Verhoff and Richard Zehner Institute of Legal Medicine, Goethe University, 60596 Frankfurt, Germany; [email protected] (J.A.); [email protected] (M.A.V.); [email protected] (R.Z.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +49-163-865-3366 Received: 31 December 2017; Accepted: 5 March 2018; Published: 9 March 2018 Abstract: Determining the age of juvenile blow flies is one of the key tasks of forensic entomology when providing evidence for the minimum post mortem interval. While the age determination of blow fly larvae is well established using morphological parameters, the current study focuses on molecular methods for estimating the age of blow flies during the metamorphosis in the pupal stage, which lasts about half the total juvenile development. It has already been demonstrated in several studies that the intraspecific variance in expression of so far used genes in blow flies is often too high to assign a certain expression level to a distinct age, leading to an inaccurate prediction. To overcome this problem, we previously identified new markers, which show a very sharp age dependent expression course during pupal development of the forensically-important blow fly Calliphora vicina Robineau–Desvoidy 1830 (Diptera: Calliphoridae) by analyzing massive parallel sequencing (MPS) generated transcriptome data. We initially designed and validated two quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assays for each of 15 defined pupal ages representing a daily progress during the total pupal development if grown at 17 ◦C.

  • Evaluating the Effects of Temperature on Larval Calliphora Vomitoria (Diptera: Calliphoridae) Consumption
    Evaluating the effects of temperature on larval Calliphora vomitoria (Diptera: Calliphoridae) consumption Kadeja Evans and Kaleigh Aaron Edited by Steven J. Richardson Abstract: Calliphora vomitoria (Diptera: Calliphoridae) are responsible for more cases of myiasis than any other arthropods. Several species of blowfly, including Cochliomyia hominivorax and Cocholiomya macellaria, parasitize living organisms by feeding on healthy tissues. Medical professionals have taken advantage of myiatic flies, Lucillia sericata, through debridement or maggot therapy in patients with necrotic tissue. This experiment analyzes how temperature influences blue bottle fly, Calliphora vomitoria. consumption of beef liver. After rearing an egg mass into first larval instars, ten maggots were placed into four containers making a total of forty maggots. One container was exposed to a range of temperatures between 18°C and 25°C at varying intervals. The remaining three containers were placed into homemade incubators at constant temperatures of 21°C, 27°C and 33°C respectively. Beef liver was placed into each container and weighed after each group pupation. The mass of liver consumed and the time until pupation was recorded. Three trials revealed that as temperature increased, the average rate of consumption per larva also increased. The larval group maintained at 33°C had the highest consumption with the shortest feeding duration, while the group at 21°C had lower liver consumption in the longest feeding period. Research in this experiment was conducted to understand the optimal temperature at which larval consumption is maximized whether in clinical instances for debridement or in myiasis cases. Keywords: Calliphora vomitoria, Calliphoridae, myiasis, consumption, debridement As an organism begins to decompose, target open wounds or necrotic tissue.

Derived from laboratory experiments, their application to field situations needs care. This study examines the effect of the post-feeding larval dispersal time on the ADH and therefore the PMI estimate. Post-feeding dispersal in blowfly larvae is typically very short in the laboratory but may extend for hours or days in the field, whilst the larvae try to find a suitable pupariation site. Increases in total ADH (to adult eclosion), due to time spent dispersing, are not simply equal to the dispersal time. The pupal period is increased by approximately 2 times the length of the dispersal period. In practice, this can introduce over-estimation errors in the PMI estimate of between 1 and 2 days if the total ADH calculations do not consider the possibility of an extended larval dispersal period. # 2007 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

Author: Reemer, Menno Title: Unravelling a hotchpotch : phylogeny and classification of the Microdontinae (Diptera: Syrphidae) Issue Date: 2012-03-13 4 Phylogenetic relationships of Microdontinae (Diptera: Syrphidae) based on parsimony analyses of combined molecular and morphological characters Menno Reemer & Gunilla Ståhls Abstract. The intrasubfamilial classification of Microdontinae Rondani, 1845 (Diptera: Syrphidae) has been considered a challenge ever since the name was first used. Although 59 genus group names are available, still more than 300 out of more than 400 valid species names are classified in the single genusMicrodon Meigen. The present paper is part of a project aimed at resolving the supraspecific taxonomy and classification of the subfamily. This paper presents the results of a phylogenetic analysis of molecular data as well as the results of a combined analysis of molecular and morphological characters. The mor- phological dataset is described and discussed in Chapter 3. The molecular dataset contains 96 taxa (87 ingroup), and five sequence fragments of three molecular markers: the mitochondrial COI-gene and the nuclear ribosomal RNA genes 18S and 28S. Analysis of molecular data only resulted in poorly resoved trees. Addition of 174 morphological characters to the dataset resulted in strongly resolved trees. Part of the resolution was lost again when the dataset was supplemented with 93 taxa for which only morphological data were available. Based on a discussion of the problem of missing data, the tree resul- ting from the analysis of the combined analysis of 96 taxa for which molecular data are available was chosen as the preferred tree.

An overview of the family is given followed by a key to the genera with a synopsis of each genus. Two new combinations are made: Matsumyia cyaniventris (Sack, 1926) comb. nov. (formerly Criorhina cyaniventris) and Citrogramma calceata (Sack, 1926) comb. nov. (formerly Xanthogramma calceata). Key words: Diptera, Brachycera, Syrphidae, Philippines, Wallacea, New Guinea, Solomon Islands, identification key, Indomalayan (Oriental) Region. Introduction Fully winged; usually with holoptic males (Fig. 5, plate 169 fig. 3, plate 169 fig. 7); females (Fig. 5, Flower flies are an abundant and critical com- plate 170 fig. 7, plate 171 fig. 1) and some males ponent of terrestrial ecosystems.
