"Forensic entomology has not been acknowledged in Indonesia so far. Indonesia carrion insects are very rarely reported. Te aim of this study was to obtain the types of insects on pig carcasses that could be used for the estimation of post-mortem interval. Four domestic pigs sacrificed with different methods were used a model. The carcasses were observed twice daily (around 9 a.m and 4 p.m) during 15 days to assess the stages of decomposition and to collect insects, both in mature and immature stages. The immature insects were reared and the mature insects were indentified in the laboratory of pests and plant diseases, University of sam ratulangi, Manado. Chrysomya megacephala and C. rufifacies were identified both morphologically and with deoxyribose-nucleic acid (DNA) techniques. Five stages of decomposition (fresh, bloated, active decay, post-decay and skeletonization) were observed. A total of 11 diptera and 8 coleoptera species were found during a 15-days succession study. Chrysomya megacephala, C. rufifacies and hermetia illucens colonized in all carcasses. Insects found on four different pig carcasss consisted mainly of widespread diptera and coleoptera. Chrysomya megacephala, C. rufifacies and Hermetia illucens seemed to be primary candidates for the estimation of the post-mortem interval."

"Forensic Entomology, An Introduction is fully revised and updated to include new research in the field. New chapter on aquatic forensic entomology. New pictorial key to aid identification of species contributed by Dr. Krzysztof Szpila. Further coverage of civil applications of forensic entomology. Practical tasks and further reading included to aid understanding. Colour plate section and improved illustrations throughout to assist in the identification of insects associated with the corpse. Approaches the topic from the dual perspectives of basic entomology and its forensic applications. Covers the contributions to forensic investigations of both flies and beetles. Provides information on culturing insects collected from crime scenes. Guides students through the processes of writing entomological court reports and presenting in court alongside the scientific topics. "

"The Insects has been the standard textbook in the field since the first edition published over forty years ago. Building on the strengths of Chapman's original text, this long-awaited 5th edition has been revised and expanded by a team of eminent insect physiologists, bringing it fully up-to-date for the molecular era. The chapters retain the successful structure of the earlier editions, focusing on particular functional systems rather than taxonomic groups and making it easy for students to delve into topics without extensive knowledge of taxonomy. The focus is on form and function, bringing together basic anatomy and physiology and examining how these relate to behaviour. This, combined with nearly 600 clear illustrations, provides a comprehensive understanding of how insects work. Now also featuring a richly illustrated prologue by George McGavin, this is an essential text for students, researchers and applied entomologists alike"--"
