Abstract:Blow flies play a crucial role in determining the post-mortem interval (PMI), yet the Egyptian blow fly fauna remains incompletely investigated. Here, we assessed some biological aspects of (Lucilia sericata, Chrysomya albiceps, and Chrysomya megacephala) that had collected from rabbit carcasses in Sharkia Governorate, and then reared in the laboratory under the influence of temperature fluctuation and humidity during spring (16–20°C; 40–60%), summer (23–27°C, 54–73%), autumn (13–17°C, 51–81%) and winter (9–13… Show more
