“…This happens because C. albiceps is a monogenic species, which means its offspring is thelygenic (only females) or arrhenogenic (only males), and the sex ratio is controlled at the population level (ulleriCh 1958). This fact has also been observed by Queiroz et al (1996) and serra et al When the total values of the species development (op cit.) were compared to the ones verified in our studies conducted in an urban area, these species presented shorter development time, despite average temperatures are similar.…”

Abstract. In order to describe the development period of forensically-important Calliphoridae species (Diptera: Brachycera) under natural conditions in Manaus, Amazonas, Brazil, two experiments were carried out at Campus II of National Institute for Amazon Research (INPA), Manaus, Amazonas, one in the rainy season and the other one in the less rainy season. Pig carcasses (25kg each) were used as attractive to oviposition of the blowflies. Calliphoridae females were collected and the eggs were placed into containers with ground beef. The reared species and development time from egg to adult (in days) in the rainy season and less rainy season, respectively, were: Chrysomya albiceps (Wiedemann) 14.5 days and 9.4 days, C. megacephala (Fabricius) 10.7 and 9.4, Hemilucilia segmentaria (Fabricius) 11.5 and 10.7, Lucilia eximia (Wiedemann) 19.7 and 14.3 and Paralucilia paraensis (Mello) reared only in the less rainy season with 11.8 days. This is a first record of the development time of P. paraensis. Keywords

“…Multiple matings enhance fecundity in the pyralid moth Ostrinia nubilalis (Hübner) (Fadamiro & Baker, 1999). The longevity and oviposition period of the blow fly Chrysomya albiceps (Wiedemann) depends on the sex ratio in culture cages (Queiroz et al, 1996). Cage size and date of emergence influence longevity in the agromyzid fly Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess) (Heinz, 1996).…”

Abstract. Some previous work on arthropod development is insufficiently detailed or incompletely reported. Much of the published information in this area is of limited use for the general analysis of life cycles. These difficulties arise primarily because many experiments do not control fully for the strain of the material (and even its specific identity) nor for rearing conditions, do not ade quately take account of the complexity of life cycles and their stages, or are restricted to only part of the life cycle. For example, 285 such factors as variable numbers of instars, sexual differences, abbreviated or hidden stages and dormancies may mean that the "average durations" reported apply to an unknown mixture of developmental types. Nor are experiments always designed or results reported and analysed in a logical and transparent manner. Undefined terms may obscure what actual developmental intervals were measured. Highly derived developmental or demographic measures may obscure core data. Statistical information may be inade quate. Such pitfalls are reviewed here, suggesting ways to ensure that results on the duration of development are both valid for spe cific studies and more widely useful. General experimental difficulties, recommended background information that should be provided, recommended life-cycle intervals and their terminology, and recommended ways to report numerical and statistical infor mation are briefly summarized in tabular form.

“…From the hosts collected we must point out the importance of the species C. albiceps, having in view its medical importance for being responsible for the production of primary myiasis and more frequently, secondary myiasis as well (Queiroz et al, 1996).…”

Species of parasitoids associated with synanthropic flies were collected in bovine kidney, in Itumbiara, State of Goiás, from March 2001 to March 2002. T he pupae were obtained by the flotation method. T hey were individually placed in gelatin capsules until the emergency of the adult flies or their parasitoids. T he overall percentage of parasitism was 23.9%. T he parasitoids Brachymeria podagrica, Nasonia vitripennis, Pachycrepoideus vindemiae, Paraganaspis egeria and Spalangia endius presented a parasitism percentage of 7.0%, 12.4%, 3.5%, 0.5% and 0.6%, respectively.
