day two‚ it seemed that three of the larvae did not survive due to their small size compared to the others. By day four‚ it seemed that four did not survive; however‚ movement was present in the others. By day eight‚ most of the larvae died due to mold development. However‚ three of the larvae started to progress into the pupal stage‚ but some of them did not complete the transformation. At day eleven‚ there were signs of eye development present in the larvae who reached the pupal stage. By day thirteen

Temperature on Blow-fly Larvae INTRODUCTION Calliphoridae- comonly known as a blowfly‚ are living organisms which usually are the first insects to colonise a body after death. The blowfly larvae are very useful in forensic entomology. The oldest larvae give an approximate time of death of body. Family: Calliphoridae Order: Diptera Name: Calliphora vicina Aim: To check the influence of temperature of environment on living functions and activity of Blow-fly larvae. Hypothesis: If

The species that is the direct variable in this experiment is the Cranefly larvae. This species does not stay as a larvae its entire life. The Cranefly larvae is one of the many species that goes through a cycle of different stages in its life. Since the larvae go through 4 different stages it is called complete metamorphosis. The first stage the species has being in an egg. After the mother Craneflies eggs are fertilized‚ they then release their eggs over temperate waters. As the eggs are

Besides the results showed us that the treatments in which one and three individuals of fourth instar larvae of C. septempunctata were present‚ the predators did consume more nymphal stages of A. gossypii than in any other treatment (Table 2). Furthermore‚ in the experiment with coccinellid larvae‚ more aphids were found alive when C. septempunctata larvae were placed in the ant-present treatment and combination treatment (L3CC + L4CS) (with or without ants) compared in the treatment
