A thoroughly updated introduction to forensic entomology In the
newly revised second edition of The Science of Forensic Entomology,
two distinguished entomologists deliver a foundational and
practical resource that equips students and professionals to be
able to understand and resolve questions concerning the presence of
specific insects at crime scenes. Each chapter in the book
addresses a topic that delves into the underlying biological
principles and concepts relevant to the insect biology that grounds
the use of insects in legal and investigational contexts. In
addition to non-traditional topics, including the biology of maggot
masses, temperature tolerances of necrophagous insects, chemical
attraction and communication, reproductive strategies of
necrophagous flies, and archaeoentomology, the book also offers
readers: A thorough introduction to the role of forensic science in
criminal investigations and the history of forensic entomology
Comprehensive discussions of the biology, taxonomy, and natural
history of forensically important insects Fulsome treatments of the
postmortem decomposition of human remains and vertebrate carrion
In-depth introduction to the concepts of accumulated degree days
and the use of insect development for estimation of the postmortem
interval New chapters dedicated to forensic entomotoxicology,
aquatic insects in forensic investigations, microbiomes of forensic
insects and carrion, professional standards, and case studies
Perfect for graduate and advanced undergraduate students in
forensic entomology, forensic biology, and general forensic
science, The Science of Forensic Entomology will also earn a place
in the libraries of law enforcement and forensic investigators, as
well as researchers in forensic entomology
