| Abstract | Chrysomya albiceps (Wiedemann) has been encountered breeding in animal carcasses and human bodies in many geographical regions. This species is considered an important postmortem indicator for Medical Legal Forensic Entomology. Studies have also demonstrated its capacity to develop in various natural and semi-synthetic substrates. The present study was undertaken to examine the development of immature C. albiceps in four different pig tissues. Eggs of this fly were deposited in flasks containing liver, abdominal fat, meat, and brain tissues. The flasks were maintained in an incubator at 25 ± 1°C, 70 ± 10% humidity, and 12-h/12-h photoperiod until emergence of the imagoes. Samples of the larvae were taken from different tissues/substrates to be weighed and measured. Their respective rates of development were accompanied. Comparisons among data from the different tissues indicated differences in the size and rate of development of larvae of the same age. Males emerged, on average, 1 day before females. Considerations as to the differences encountered for the estimate of postmortem interval were elaborated and consequences for the accuracy of the inferences discussed. The results indicate that such inferences should consider the disparities in the development of larvae presented by this species in different tissues. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
