Next-generation sequencing is increasingly used in conservation biology to resolve complex interactions between species, either diet or gut parasites studies. We applied a recent long metabarcoding method elucidate the green whip snake’s (Hierophis viridiflavus) prey consumption based on DNA extracted from stomach contents. Illegally introduced Canton of Vaud (Switzerland), three populations sn...

The term medical entomology (entomologie médicale) was used for the first time in France around 1910. As far as France is concerned, the study of arthropods as critical components in the propagation of severe diseases such as yellow fever, trypanosomiasis, and malaria gradually emerged after 1890 in three main types of institution: civilian faculties of medicine, a specialized military medical ...

The seasonal activity and abundance of two blowflies species of forensic entomology were investigated by using baited traps in four slaughterhouses at four different locations in Jeddah City, Saudi Arabia. This study were carried out from 19 February,2013 to 21 January ,2014. Three traps were fitted in each slaughterhouse. Two blowflies were attracte, Chrysomya megacephala and Crysomya marginal...
