“…The present study showed that S. ruficornis was the most important sarcophagid of insect succession on all rabbit carcasses during all seasons. Agreeable results were presented by Aly et al (2017). In addition, larvae of Sarcophaga were collected during the four seasons from all corpses except cypermethrin-intoxicated corpse.…”

“…However, the second and third important forensic orders were represented by Coleoptera (3 species belong to 3 families) and Hymenoptera (3 species belong to 3 families), respectively. Likewise, Abd El-bar and Sawaby (2011) recorded only 16 species, Al-Shareef and Al-Mazyad ( 2016) reported fewer forensic insects (9 species), Aly et al (2017) recorded 18 species and El-Samad et al ( 2021) listed 17 species. However, some other studies collected more insect species such as Wang et al (2008), Abd El-Bar et al (2016 and Hamdy et al (2022) collected 47 species, 36 species and 67 species, respectively.…”

“…This observation was convenient with Eze (2017). Similarly, Atherigona varia, Physiphora demandata, Culex pipiens and Syrphus corollae were collected as adult only as they visited the carrion to feed not to breed (Aly et al, 2017).…”

“…Pteromalid (Nasonia sp.) is a small polyphagous parasitic species, living in different habitats, and may parasitize on several dipterans laying its eggs inside their pupae, it considered as secondery forensic agent in case of absence from dipteran flies (Aly et al, 2017).…”

“…Forensic entomology is the science interested with studying insects and other arthropods associated with cadavers which uses the data about their development or succession pattern to estimate the post mortem interval and hence, assistance in solving criminal cases (Aly et al, 2017;Kenawy and Abdel-Hamid, 2019;Byrd andSutton, 2020 andEl-Samad et al, 2020). It is divided into three components: urban, stored products and medico-legal (criminal) forensic entomology (Tuccia et al, 2018 andEl-Samad et al, 2021).…”

This work aims to compare between the forensic insect species, their succession patterns and decomposition stages of rabbit corpses killed with different methods in Qena city, Egypt. Four experiments were carried out during this study for four successive seasons. Four rabbits were placed in each experiment, the first two rabbits received a double LD50 of tramadol hydrochloride and cypermethrin via ear vein injection. The third rabbit was slaughtered while the fourth rabbit was euthanized with air injection (control). The LD50 of tramadol and cypermethrin in male rabbit was calculated from logarithmic scale and found to be 132 mg/kg and 126 µ|/kg body weight, respectively.Currently, a total of 14271 insect individuals were collected from the screened bodies belonging to three orders, thirteen families and seventeen species. Moreover, corpses were colonized by different insect life stages (11689, 352 and 2230 individuals) included dipteran flies, Coleopteran and Hymenopteran insects, respectively The total number of species collected in summer was lower than in other seasons. Tramadol-treated rabbits decayed with similar rate to the control corpses during all seasons except in winter. As well as, decomposition process was significantly prolonged in cypermethrin killed rabbits during all seasons. However, slaughtered carrions decayed faster than control in winter and spring. Maggots deposited on cypermethrin-intoxicated carrions were very few and have been dead after few days from oviposition. Density of maggots collected from control corpse was loweras compared to the slaughtered one and higher than that on tramadol treated corpse. Therefore, these results are recommended to be taken in criminal investigations.

Perineal myiasis caused by Wohlfahrtia magnifica in mares in central France

Three cases of Wohlfahrtia magnifica perineal myiasis on mares living in the Indre Department (central France) are reported. W. magnifica, whose geographical dispersion towards the plains has been known since the 1980s, continues its progression in France. Altitude is not a limiting factor for this fly, unlike climate. However, we assume that climate change and its ecological consequences, associated with the natural resistance of the maggot and commercial transactions, will not be an obstacle to the W. magnifica development in France.

The scuttle fly, Megaselia scalaris is an omnivorous species, capable of exploring a large variety of environments and ecological niches. It is known as an important detritivore species with maggots feeding on a variety of food of both animal and plant origin. M. scalaris was investigated as a severely-infesting pupal-adult parasitoid on the laboratory mass culture of the two tephritid species of the peach fruit fly, Bactrocera zonata (Saunders) and the Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann) reared in laboratory of Horticultural
