  • Evaluación de trampas Schoenly modificadas y el muestreo tradicional en la captura de múscidos (Diptera : muscidae) en el proceso de descomposición del cerdo doméstico
    Maestría en Ciencias Biológicas, 2017
    Co-Authors: Amézquita Galindo, Sandra Liliana
    Abstract:

    La entomología forense se encarga de estudiar los artrópodos hallados en la escena de un crimen que pueden ayudar a la resolución del mismo. Familias de dípteros como Calliphoridae, Sarcophagidae y Muscidae son consideradas de importancia forense, por lo que estudiar su biología y ecología puede generar información aplicable a las ciencias forenses. Distintos métodos se han empleado para la colecta de artrópodos de interés forense, entre ellos la Trampa Schoenly y el Método tradicional. Evaluar las trampas Schoenly con respecto a la colecta de múscidos en el proceso de descomposición del cerdo Sus scrofa, fue el objetivo principal de este trabajo, desarrollado en la Sabana de Bogotá. Se colectaron 3256 adultos, distribuidos en 8 géneros y especies o morfoespecies: Azelia sp., Dasymorellia seguyi, Dolichophaonia regina, Graphomya sp., Hydrotaea nubilicosta, Musca domestica, Muscina stabulans y Stomoxys sp. Entre estos, Hydrotaea nubilicosta y Azelia sp. fueron las especies más abundantes en el estudio y en cada etapa de descomposición. La trampa Schoenly con cebo fue la que más individuos colectó (2225). En la etapa de descomposición Hinchado se colectaron el mayor número de múscidos, seguida de la etapa Activa. Estos resultados permiten concluir que la abundancia es una variable importante para tener en cuenta en la evaluación de las trampas, pues la riqueza de especies no fue determinante para la valoración de las mismas. De acuerdo a esto, la trampa Schoenly con cebo, es mejor método para colectar múscidos que la metodología tradicional.Forensic entomology is responsible for studying arthropods found at the scene of a crime and which can help to resolve the case. Families of Diptera such as Calliphoridae, Sarcophagidae and Muscidae are considered important for the forensic science. Therefore, studying the biology and ecology of these arthropods can generate applicable information to the criminal science. Different methods have been used to collect the arthropods of forensic interest, including Trap Schoenly and the traditional method. The main objective of this research was to evaluate Schoenly trap on Muscidae collection in the decomposition process of Sus scrofa carcases, it was, which it was carried out in the Sabana, Bogota. In total 3256 adult individuals were collected, distributed in 8 genres and species or morphospecies: Azelia sp., Dasymorellia seguyi, Dolichophaonia regina, Graphomya sp., Hydrotaea nubilicosta, Musca domestica, Muscina stabulans and Stomoxys sp. The study showed that, Hydrotaea nubilicosta and Azelia sp. were the most abundant species in each stage of the decomposition process. In addition, the Schoenly trap with bait was the trap that more individuals collected (2225). In the Swollen decomposition phase was collected the highest number of Muscidae, followed by the active phase. These results suggest that abundance is an important variable in the evaluation of the traps, due that the richness of species was not decisive for the assessment of them. Accordingly, the Schoenly trap with bait is a better method to collect Muscidae rather than the traditional methodology

  • forensic entomology cases in thailand a review of cases from 2000 to 2006
    Parasitology Research, 2007
    Co-Authors: Kom Sukontason, Somsak Piangjai, Hiromu Kurahashi, Karnda Vichairat, Paitoon Narongchai, Chaturong Kanchai, Pongruk Sribanditmongkol, Tanin Bhoopat, Manoch Chockjamsai, Nophawan Bunchu
    Abstract:

    This paper presents and discusses 30 cases of cadavers that had been transferred for forensic entomology investigations to the Department of Forensic Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Chiang Mai University, northern Thailand, from 2000 to 2006. Variable death scenes were determined, including forested area and suburban and urban outdoor and indoor environments. The fly specimens found in the corpses obtained were the most commonly of the blow fly of family Calliphoridae, and consisted of Chrysomya megacephala (F.), Chrysomya rufifacies (Macquart) Chrysomya villeneuvi Patton, Chrysomya nigripes Aubertin, Chrysomya bezziana Villeneuve, Chrysomya chani Kurahashi, Lucilia cuprina (Wiedemann), Hemipyrellia ligurriens (Wiedemann), and two unknown species. Flies of the family Muscidae [Hydrotaea spinigera Stein, Synthesiomyia nudiseta (Wulp)], Piophilidae [Piophila casei (L.)], Phoridae [Megaselia scalaris (Loew)], Sarcophagidae [Parasarcophaga ruficornis (F.) and three unknown species], and Stratiomyiidae (Sargus sp.) were also collected from these human remains. Larvae and adults of the beetle, Dermestes maculatus DeGeer (Coleoptera: Dermestidae), were also found in some cases. Chrysomya megacephala and C. rufifacies were the most common species found in the ecologically varied death scene habitats associated with both urban and forested areas, while C. nigripes was commonly discovered in forested places. S. nudiseta was collected only from corpses found in an indoor death scene.

  • sensilla of the antenna and palp of Hydrotaea chalcogaster diptera muscidae
    Micron, 2007
    Co-Authors: Roy C. Vogtsberger, Rungkanta Methanitikorn, Hiromu Kurahashi, Tarinee Chaiwong, Kom Sukontason
    Abstract:

    Hydrotaea chalcogaster is a fly species of medical and forensic importance in many parts of the world. In this study, we investigated the sensilla of the antenna and palp of the adult female fly using scanning electron microscopy. The antennal scape has one type of sensillum, the sharp-tipped sensillum trichodeum; whereas, the antennal pedicel also possessed this type of sensillum in addition to an unidentified type. Three types of sensilla were found on the flagellum: (1) sensilla basiconica, with both large and small sensilla basiconica showing wall pores, (2) sensilla coeloconica, with a smooth surface, and (3) sensory pits, with wall pores of pegs. The arista is located dorso-laterally on the flagellum and has three segments. Short microtrichia are located around the distal end of its second segment and on the proximal half of the third segment. Both large sharp-tipped sensilla chaetica and small sensilla basiconica with wall pores were observed on the palps. Results of this study contribute to our overall understanding of the ultrastructural morphology of sensilla on the antenna and palp of H. chalcogaster.

  • ultrastructure of adhesive device in fly in families calliphoridae muscidae and sarcophagidae and their implication as mechanical carriers of pathogens
    Parasitology Research, 2006
    Co-Authors: Rungkanta Methanitikorn, Nophawan Bunchu, Tarinee Chaiwong, Budsabong Kuntalue, Kom Sukontason
    Abstract:

    The ultrastructure of adhesive device or the pulvilli, pad-like structure between the tarsal claws of the legs, is presented in the blowfly (Calliphoridae), housefly and relatives (Muscidae), and flesh fly (Sarcophagidae) through scanning electron microscopy. The blowfly species were Chrysomya chani, Chrysomya nigripes, Chrysomya pinguis, and Chrysomya villeneuvi; while those of the housefly and relatives were Musca domestica and Hydrotaea chalcogaster, respectively. Fresh fly species included Boettcherisca peregrina and Liosarcophaga dux. Numerous tenent setae were observed on the ventral side of the pulvilli. Two features of the tip of the tenent setae were found as a spatula-like (in C. chani, C. pinguis, C. nigripes, M. domestica, H. chalcogaster, B. peregrina, and L. dux) and spoon-like tip (in C. villeneuvi). Transmission electron microscopy of the tenent setae in M. domestica revealed the electron-lucent centrally located, suggesting an adhesive substance. These results provided anatomical information that allow us to not only understand the successful attachment of flies to smooth surfaces but also clarify their role as a mechanical carrier of microorganisms.

  • differentiation of the third instar of forensically important fly species in thailand
    Annals of The Entomological Society of America, 2004
    Co-Authors: Duanghatai Sripakdee, Radchadawan Ngernklun, Kom Sukontason, Somsak Piangjai
    Abstract:

    Differentiation of the third instar of forensically important fly species in Thailand was performed using light microscopy, based on their morphological criteria for fly identification. Four species of the family Calliphoridae [Chrysomya rufifacies (Macquart), Chrysomya megacephala (F.), Chrysomya nigripes Aubertin, and Lucilia cuprina (Wiedemann)] and two species of the family Muscidae [Musca domestica L. and Hydrotaea (=Ophyra) spinigera Stein] were examined in this study, with the features of the anterior spiracles, dorsal spines between the prothorax and mesothorax, and posterior spiracles being emphasized. The comparisons, presented herein, should be helpful for forensic practitioners to readily distinguish the third instars of fly species found associated with human cadavers, before their use for further forensic investigations.

  • the first documented forensic entomology case in thailand
    Journal of Medical Entomology, 2001
    Co-Authors: Somsak Piangjai, Roy C. Vogtsberger, Kom Sukontason, Karnda Vichairat, Sirisuda Lertthamnongtham, Jimmy K Olson
    Abstract:

    Abstract The forensic entomology case described herein is the first such case documented in Thailand. A mummified corpse of a 32-yr-old man was discovered in a forested habitat, with the larvae of six species of flies (Diptera) found in association with the corpse at the time of its discovery, i.e., those of Hydrotaea (=Ophyra) spinigera Stein (family Muscidae), Piophila casei (L.) (family Piophilidae), Megaselia scalaris (Loew) (family Phoridae), Sargus sp. (family Stratiomyidae), and larvae of two unidentified flesh fly species (family Sarcophagidae). The presence and age of the larval specimens of P. casei, M. scalaris, and H. spinigera gave entomological evidence that the postmortem interval for the corpse was 3–6 mo. This report also documents some of the forensically important fly species that occur in Thailand.

  • Sinantropia de Muscidae (Diptera) na cidade de Valdivia, Chile
    'FapUNIFESP (SciELO)', 2015
    Co-Authors: Figueroa-roa Luis, Linhares, Arício X.
    Abstract:

    The objective of the present study was to determine the index of synanthropy of adults of Muscidae species collected in Valdivia, Chile (39°48'S; 73°15'W). The flies were collected monthly between September 1996 and August 1997 at three different locations, representing urban, rural and natural environments. Rat carcasses, chicken viscera, and fish viscera were used as bait. Six species of Muscidae were collected: Psilochaeta chalybea (Wiedemann) was dominant in urban and rural habitats, being eusynanthropic. The second species in importance was Hydrotaea acuta (Stein), being hemisynanthropic and more abundant in the natural environment. Ophyra ignava (Harris) was another species captured in relatively large numbers, and showing eusynanthropic characteristic. The remaining three species, Musca domestica L., Palpibracus valdiviensis (Couri & Pamplona), and Mu scina stabulans (Fallén) were captured in low numbers. In addition to the indexes of synanthropy, monthly abundances were determined and discussed, as well as the efficiency of the different baits used to collect the flies. The medical and sanitary importance of the flies was also assessed.O objetivo do presente trabalho foi determinar o índice de sinantropia de adultos de espécies de Muscidae coletados em Valdivia, Chile (39°48'S; 73°15'W).

  • development of Hydrotaea aenescens diptera muscidae in manure of unweaned dairy calves and lactating cows
    Journal of Economic Entomology, 2002
    Co-Authors: Jerome A Hogsette, Robert Farkas, Reginald Coler
    Abstract:

    In laboratory studies performed in the United States and Hungary, the dump fly Hydrotaea aenescens (Wiedemann) was reared successfully in manure of 1- to 8-wk-old dairy calves, and in manure from adult lactating dairy cows. Survival in manure collected from 1-wk-old calves was poor (7.2%), better in manure collected from 2- and 3-wk-old calves (53.5%), and best in manure collected from 4- to 8-wk-old calves (71.4%). Survival in cow manure was slightly lower (47.4%) than that in calf manure. Reasons for different rates of development in the United States and in Hungary, and by calf age are discussed as are implications for biological control.

  • distinctive hydrocarbons of the black dump fly Hydrotaea aenescens diptera muscidae
    Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, 2001
    Co-Authors: David A Carlson, Jerome A Hogsette, Ulrich R Bernier, Bruce D Sutton
    Abstract:

    Hydrotaea aenescens (Wiedemann), the black dump fly, is a potential biological control agent originally from the western hemisphere, now found in many parts of the Palearctic region except for the United Kingdom, where it cannot be imported for any reason. A complication of classical biological control is the problem of strain identification, as one must be able to somehow mark or follow a particular strain that has been introduced into the field or is contemplated for release. Gas chromatographic analysis of the surface hydrocarbons of pooled and individual dump fly adults resulted in reproducible hydrocarbon patterns that differentiated widely distributed strains of H. aenescens and showed similarities between strains that were related. Sexual dimorphism was observed in the surface hydrocarbons. Conspecific similarities included identities of the hydrocarbons found in colony material collected worldwide, with differences being found in the quantities of compounds present. Arch.

  • failure of Hydrotaea aenescens a larval predator of the housefly musca domestica to establish in wet poultry manure on a commercial farm in florida u s a
    Medical and Veterinary Entomology, 1999
    Co-Authors: Jerome A Hogsette, R D Jacobs
    Abstract:

    Hydrotaea aenescens (Weidemann) (Diptera: Muscidae) larvae and pupae were released in high-rise pullet houses in Pascoe County, Florida, U.S.A., for biological control of houseflies, Musca domestica L. (Diptera: Muscidae), in three separate tests during a 14-month period (April 1994-May 1995) and did not become established. However, H. aenescens believed to be from our releases did become established at a caged-layer farm 0.3 km from the release farm. Moisture in pullet house manure generally exceeded 80%, which is above the level at which H. aenescens is reared in colony. Caged-layer manure was also very wet, but crusted areas provided sites for H. aenescens larval development. Results demonstrate that H. aenescens adults will disperse from release sites and populate preferred sites without becoming a nuisance.

  • development of Hydrotaea aenescens and musca domestica diptera muscidae in poultry and pig manures of different moisture content
    Environmental Entomology, 1998
    Co-Authors: Robert Farkas, Jerome A Hogsette, Laszlo Borzsonyi
    Abstract:

    Hydrotaea aenescens (Wiedemann) and Musca domestica L. were reared separately and successfully in poultry and pig manure with moisture levels of 50–80%. H. aenescens produced more pupae in poultry manure, but heavier pupae in pig manure. The reverse was true for M. domestica. Both flies were unable to complete their development at higher and lower moisture levels, however both species were from laboratory strains that have been selected for development at optimum moisture levels. Implications for biological control are discussed.

  • quantitative mass production of Hydrotaea aenescens diptera muscidae
    Journal of Economic Entomology, 1995
    Co-Authors: Jerome A Hogsette, Frank Washington
    Abstract:

    A covered oviposition device was developed that allows collection of large numbers of Hydrotaea aenescens (Wiedemann) (formerly Ophyra aenescens ) eggs. Eggs can be measured and known numbers added to larval rearing medium so this beneficial fly can be reared quantitatively for the first time. With the use of quantitative rearing techniques and a new diet consisting of 5 parts Gainesville house fly diet and 1 part meat and bone meal, H. aenescens can be mass-reared easily for biological control studies.

The flies were collected monthly between September 1996 and August 1997 at three different locations, representing urban, rural and natural environments. Rat carcasses, chicken viscera, and fish viscera were used as bait. Six species of Muscidae were collected: Psilochaeta chalybea (Wiedemann) was dominant in urban and rural habitats, being eusynanthropic. The second species in importance was Hydrotaea acuta (Stein), being hemisynanthropic and more abundant in the natural environment. Ophyra ignava (Harris) was another species captured in relatively large numbers, and showing eusynanthropic characteristic. The remaining three species, Musca domestica L., Palpibracus valdiviensis (Couri & Pamplona), and Mu scina stabulans (Fallén) were captured in low numbers. In addition to the indexes of synanthropy, monthly abundances were determined and discussed, as well as the efficiency of the different baits used to collect the flies. The medical and sanitary importance of the flies was also assessed
