Improved Types of the Horse Meat Baited Fly Trap and the Fly Emergence Trap

The horse meat baited fly trap and the fly emergence trap (the Yoken traps) were improved and described in detail. The horse meat baited trap is for use in the field to observe the abundance of attracted adults and the breeding period of flies. The emergence trap is used to know the time of the adult emergence from the prepupae and pupae that have been found in the sand in the baited fly trap. By using these traps concurrently, the life cycle of blow flies would be properly studied

Life Cycle of an Oriental Blow Fly, Lucilia porphyrina (Walker) in Nagasaki, Western Japan

An investigation was made of the life history of Lucilia porphyrina (Walker) in Nagasaki prefecture, Western Japan from January, 1990 to December, 1992. A trap baited with horse meat was maintained at each of 3 altitudes, 5m, 500m and 1,000m, on Mt. Gokahara-dake. The number of flies captured was recorded once a month. The larvae and pupae which had bred from meat in the trap were also counted and transferred into a separate trap for emergence. The upper region of the mountain was considered as a primary habitat of this blow fly. At all altitudes, mature larvae were observed to enter dormancy/diapause in fall. Before winter adult flies at higher altitudes probably migrate to lowland for hibernation. After hibernation, males and females copulate, and females migrate again to highlands for oviposition during spring and early summer. During summer the highland seems to be the main habitat because all life stages were observed, while the lowland trap held only dormant/diapause larvae in summer. These latter individuals pupated and emerged in September

There are some issues of the judicial precedent of a barrier-free relation. For instance, itis a national libility, a constitution, and a construction thing liability, etc. It contended forthe precedent with a barrier-free defect. But, a station employee\u27s remark causes a trouble inthe precedent, and there is a case of the doubt in the volunteer\u27s attitude, too. In other wordsit becomes a trouble according to the way that they are concerned. In this paper, it considershow it is understood the safety consideration duty of the barrier free

Dois novos registros de Isomyia paurogonita Fang e Fan, 1986 e Sumatria latifrons, Malloch, 1926 (Diptera: Calliphoridae) do norte da Tailândia, com chave revisada para as espécies de Isomyia

During the annual fly survey at Doi Nang Kaew in Doi Saket District, Chiang Mai Province of Thailand in 2011, Isomyia paurogonita Fang & Fan, 1986 (Diptera: Calliphoridae) and Sumatria latifrons Malloch, 1926 (Diptera: Calliphoridae) were collected for the first time in Thailand. They are the rare species of the subfamily Rhiniinae (tribe Cosminini). Prior to this finding, fifteen species of Isomyia and two species of Sumatria were recorded from Thailand. Therefore, 96 blow fly species have been found in this country. These new locality records of both flies are very important for further research on their biology and ecology in Thailand.Durante a pesquisa anual de moscas em Doi Nang Kaew no Distrito de Doi, Província de Chiang Mai, Thailandia, em 2011, Isomyia paurogonita Fang e Fan, 1986 (Diptera: Calliphoridae) e Sumatria latifrons, Malloch, 1926 (Diptera: Calliphoridae) foram coletados pela primeira vez na Tailândia. São espécies raras da sub-família Rhiniinae (tribo Cosminini). Antes deste achado, 15 espécies de Isomyia e duas de Sumatria foram relatadas na Tailândia. Portanto, 96 espécies de ”blow flies” foram encontradas neste país. Estes achados locais de ambas as moscas são bastante importantes para a posterior pesquisa de sua biologia e ecologia na Tailândia

Distribution and occurrence of blow flies of forensic importance was performed during 2007 and 2008 in Chiang Mai and Lampang Provinces, northern Thailand. Surveys were conducted in forested areas for 30 minutes using a sweep net to collected flies attracted to a bait. A total of 2,115 blow flies belonging to six genera and 14 species were collected; Chrysomya megacephala (Fabricius) (44.7%), C. pinguis (Walker) (15.1%), C. chani Kurahashi (9.3%), C. thanomthini Kurahashi & Tumrasvin (0.3%); Achoetandrus rufifacies (Macquart) (10.5%), A. villeneuvi (Patton) (2.2%); Lucilia papuensis Macquart (2.2%), L. porphyrina (Walker) (12.4%), L. sinensis Aubertin (0.7%); Hemipyrellia ligurriens (Wiedemann) (1.3%), H. pulchra (Wiedemann) (0.1%); Hypopygiopsis infumata (Bigot) (0.6%), Hy. tumrasvini Kurahashi (0.2%) and Ceylonomyia nigripes Aubertin (0.4%). Among them, C. megacephala was the predominant species collected, particularly in the summer. The species likely to prevail in highland areas are C. pinguis, C. thanomthini, Hy. tumrasvini, L. papuensis and L. porphyrina.Distribuição e ocorrência de moscas-varejeiras de importância forense foi realizada durante 2007 e 2008 nas províncias de Chiang Mai e Lampang, norte da Tailândia. Os levantamentos foram feitos em áreas de florestas, durante 30 minutos usando rede de varredura para coletar as moscas atraídas por iscas. Um total de 2115 moscas-varejeiras pertencentes a seis gêneros e 14 espécies foram coletados; Chrysomya megacephala (Fabricius) (44,7%), C. pinguis (Walker) (15,1%), C. chani Kurahashi (9,3%), C. thanomthini Kurahashi & Tumrasvin (0,3%); Achoetandrus rufifacies (Macquart) (10,5%), A. villeneuvi (Patton) (2,2%); Lucilia papuensis Macquart (2,2%), L. porphyrina (Walker) (12,4%), L. sinensis Aubertin (0,7%); Hemipyrellia ligurriens (Wiedemann) (1,3%), H. pulchra (Wiedemann) (0,1%); Hypopygiopsis infumata (Bigot) (0,6%), Hy. tumrasvini Kurahashi (0,2%) e Ceylonomyia nigripes Aubertin (0,4%). Dentre elas a C. megacephala foi a espécie predominante coletada particularmente no verão. As espécies capazes de predominar nas áreas altas são: C. pinguis, C. thanomthini, Hy. tumrasvini, L. papuensis e L. porphyrina
