[ 1 ] - Isolation and morphological study of ecologically-important insect “Hermetia illucens” collected from Roorkee compost plant

Certain species of Hermetia illucens, also known as the Black Soldier Fly(BSF), were found in a compost plant in Roorkee located in Northern India. Its larvae arevoracious eaters of organic waste, hence can play an ecologically-important role in solidwaste management. Morphological analysis of various stages of BSF life cycle by SEMshowed that its body along with its wings is densely covered wi...
