13. Comparative morphology and identification key for females of nine Sarcophagidae species (Diptera) with forensic importance in Southern Brazil
ABSTRACTThe identification of female flesh flies was always considered a difficult task since morphological descriptions and keys for females are rare. Even in a forensic entomology framework, where females play a major role, female flesh flies are usually not identified. In order to fill this gap in Southern Brazil fauna we provide detailed descriptions and

14. Bionomy of two flies of sanitary and forensic importance: Peckia (Sarcodexia) lambens (Wiedemann) and Oxysarcodexia amorosa (Schiner) (Diptera, Sarcophagidae)
ABSTRACTThis study aims to elucidate the bionomy of Peckia(Sarcodexia) lambens and Oxysarcodexia amorosa to provide data for medical, veterinary and forensic entomology analyses. We analyzed larval stage duration (L1–L3), weight of the mature larvae (L3), pupal stage duration, L1–adult duration, adult emergence and viability of larvae and adults of both

15. Geographic distribution of phlebotomine sandfly species (Diptera: Psychodidae) in Central-West Brazil
This study updates the geographic distributions of phlebotomine species in Central-West Brazil and analyses the climatic factors associated with their occurrence. The data were obtained from the entomology services of the state departments of health in Central-West Brazil, scientific collections and a literature review of articles from 1962-2014. Ecological

16. Biological Control in Brazil: an overview
The use of Biological Control methods is on the increase, mainly as a result of the mobilization of human resources in entomology studies since the establishment of graduate programs in this country in the 1960s. This review approaches the retrospective of Biological Control in Brazil in recent decades, with an emphasis on the "culture of applying agrochemic

17. Sarchophagid flies (Insecta, Diptera) from pig carcasses in Minas Gerais, Brazil, with nine new records from the Cerrado, a threatened Neotropical biome
Sarchophagid flies (Insecta, Diptera) from pig carcasses in Minas Gerais, Brazil, with nine new records from the Cerrado, a threatened Neotropical biome. The diversity of the Sarcophagidae fauna of the Cerrado biome, also know as the Brazilian Savanna, is still underestimated. In this research we collected flies in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, during a

18. Biological aspects of Leucothyreus ambrosius Blanchard (Coleoptera, Melolonthidae, Rutelinae)
Biological aspects of Leucothyreus ambrosius Blanchard (Coleoptera, Melolonthidae, Rutelinae). Coleopterans of the family Melolonthidae comprise a large group of species that feed on different food sources, including plant roots, stems, and leaves, in addition to plant materials at different decomposition stages. Several species are found in the genus Leucot

19. New species of Blaberidae and Ectobiidae (Blattaria) from Brazil
We describe three new species collected from the Reserva Ducke (02°55'-03°01'S, 59°53'-59°59'W), near Manaus, state of Amazonas: one new species was included in Blaberidae (Epilamprinae): Epilampra manauara sp. nov: , which is similar to E. sagitta Rocha e Silva & Aguiar, 1978. It differs from that species in the generally darker coloration and the inter

20. Ant species (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) from the seasonally dry tropical forest of northeastern Brazil: a compilation from field surveys in Bahia and literature records
Ant species (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) from the seasonally dry tropical forest of northeastern Brazil: a compilation from field surveys in Bahia and literature records. The Caatingas occur predominantly in northeastern Brazil and comparatively it is the biome that received less attention than any other ecosystem in Brazil, representing the region where invert

21. History of domestication and spread of Aedes aegypti - A Review
The adaptation of insect vectors of human diseases to breed in human habitats (domestication) is one of the most important phenomena in medical entomology. Considerable data are available on the vector mosquito Aedes aegypti in this regard and here we integrate the available information including genetics, behaviour, morphology, ecology and biogeography of t

22. Sampling and spatial distribution of Sphenophorus Levis in sugar cane for site specific control / Plano de amostragem e distribuição espacial visando o controle localizado de Sphenophorus Levis na cultura da cana-de-açúcar
No Brasil o bicudo da cana-de-açúcar, (Sphenophorus levis Vaurie) tem se tornado uma praga importante da cultura, podendo causar perdas expressivas na produtividade. Percebe-se que são raros os estudos sobre a distribuição espacial desta praga no campo, e tais estudos são imprescindíveis para o desenvolvimento de planos de amostragem, visando à aplic

23. Processo de decomposição e padrão sucessional de artrópodes em carcaças de suínos expostas em locais abrigados e desabrigados / The process decomposition and the successional pattern of arthropods in pig carcasses exposed to unsheltered environments
Forensic Entomology uses data, mainly from carrion insects, to estimate the Post Mortem Interval (PMI). The oviposition pattern of these insects can be influenced by several factors, such as the presence of materials in the vicinity of the body, whether the corpses are buried, burned or disposed in open or closed environments, etc. These factors can affect t

24. Biologia e manejo de Chalcodermus bicolor Fiedler (Col.: Curculionidae: Molytinae), em plantios de eucalipto / Biology and management of Chalcodermus bicolor Fiedler (Col.: Curculionidae: Molytinae), in eucalypt plantations
This work deals to the biology and pest management aspects of the “Eucalypt-trimmer”, a new leaf beetle in the Brazilian eucalypt plantations. Works were developed under lab conditions (Temperature = 25.29 0.20C; RH = 78.26 0.94%; photophase: scotophase = 10:14 hours). Insects were collected from cloned eucalypt in the Mucuri and Caravelas counti
