| mitosis in the haemocytes of sarcophaga ruficornis (diptera). | among the haemocytes of sarcophaga ruficornis, only the prohaemocytes divide. injection of phytohaemagglutinin-p induces 100% prohaemocytes to undergo mitosis but does not induce mitosis in other cells. mitotic stages other than the prophase are apparently very short lived. | 1979 | 510476 |
| postembryonic changes in the optic primordia and optic bud in the flesh fly sarcophaga ruficornis fabr. (diptera: sarcophagidae). | differentiation of the optic lobe anlagen begin in the brain of second instar. each is an elongated disc of cortical cells placed on the dorsolateral border of each protocerebrum. in the late second instar the disc elongates and its two ends bend inwards which gradually separate from the central region, thus giving three imaginal discs. the protocerebral neuropile extends into these discs and medulla interna and externa are formed. the rudiments of compound eyes (cephalic complex) appear in the ... | 1979 | 545933 |
| is a urea cycle present in insects? | 1. the presence of appreciable activity of the urea-cycle enzymes in the tissues of sarcophaga ruficornis, a carnivorous dipteran insect, all through its life-cycle appears significant in view of their total absence barring arginase (l-arginine ureohydrolase, ec 3.5.3.1) in the phytophagous lepidopteran eri silkwork philosamia ricini at any stage of development. further, the variation of all these enzymes all through its development suggests the possibility of the operation of the krebs-henselei ... | 1978 | 697760 |

| effect of precocene on development of ovarian follicles in flesh fly, sarcophaga ruficornis f. | administration of precocene ii (6,7-dimethoxy-2, 2-dimethyl chromene) to freshly emerged virgin female flies of s. ruficornis adversely affected the development and differentiation of ovarian follicles leading to a number of morphological abnormalities. precocene treatment resulted into suppression of development of egg chamber, differentiation of follicular epithelium, degeneration of nurse cells, growth of oocyte and uptake of yolk granules by oocytes. the results suggest that precocene induce ... | 2004 | 15274485 |

| forensic entomology in kuwait: the first case report. | to date, entomology has not been used in legal investigations in kuwait. indeed, this is true of most arab countries in the middle east. there are no known studies on necrophagous species in the region, nor any knowledge of cadaver succession with which to compare case material. here we report the first case of application of forensic entomology in kuwait. in al-rowdah district, a man was found dead in his bedroom which was air-conditioned and the windows were closed. the temperature of the room ... | 2011 | 20705405 |
| cuticular hydrocarbons as a tool for the identification of insect species: puparial cases from sarcophagidae. | the external surface of all insects is covered by a species-specific complex mixture of highly stable, very long chain cuticular hydrocarbons (chcs). gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry was used to identify chcs from four species of sarcophagidae, peckia (peckia) chrysostoma, peckia (pattonella) intermutans, sarcophaga (liopygia) ruficornis and sarcodexia lambens. the identified chcs were mostly a mixture of n-alkanes, monomethylalkanes and dimethylalkanes with linear chain lengths v ... | 2013 | 23932943 |
| developmental rate of immatures of two fly species of forensic importance: sarcophaga (liopygia) ruficornis and microcerella halli (diptera: sarcophagidae). | since insect species are poikilothermic organisms, they generally exhibit different growth patterns depending on the temperature at which they develop. this factor is important in forensic entomology, especially for estimating postmortem interval (pmi) when it is based on the developmental time of the insects reared in decomposing bodies. this study aimed to estimate the rates of development, viability, and survival of immatures of sarcophaga (liopygia) ruficornis (fabricius 1794) and microcerel ... | 2014 | 24189973 |
