  • Title: The use of Megaselia abdita (Diptera: Phoridae) in forensic entomology.
    Author: Manlove JD, Disney RH.
    Journal: Forensic Sci Int; 2008 Feb 25; 175(1):83-4. PubMed ID: 17950548.
    Abstract:
    This case study demonstrates the importance of the Phorid, Megaselia abdita (Schmitz), as an indicator for post-mortem interval estimation in criminal investigations involving forensic entomology where it is usually the more frequently occurring Calliphorids that are most useful. A case example is discussed where the temperatures were low for the period of time the deceased was missing.
