TL;DR: A method for using mitochondrial DNA sequence data and phylogenetic analysis to identify any specimen of the blow fly subfamily Chrysomyinae likely to be collected from a human corpse within Canada or the USA is demonstrated.
231 citations
TL;DR: Comparison of molecular divergences for each of the 13 protein-coding genes and 2 ribosomal RNA genes, at a range of taxonomic scales identified novel targets for developing as diagnostic markers which were 117-200% more variable than the markers which have been used previously in calliphorids.
184 citations
TL;DR: To investigate the monophyly and phylogenetic relationships of the Calliphoridae (blowflies), 23 terminal monophyletic taxa within the Oestroidea and two outgroup taxa were scored for 45 adult and larval characters and subjected to analyses using parsimony.

TL;DR: A taxonomic revision of the Calliphoridae of Fennoscandia and Denmark is presented in this article, where the nomenclature is revised and numerous new specific and generic synonymies are established.
Abstract: The Calliphoridae are a widespread family of insects of great medical, veterinary and forensic importance. They encompass, among others, the familiar greenbottle and bluebottle filth flies. The book presents a taxonomic revision of the blowflies of Fennoscandia and Denmark. Keys and diagnoses, descriptions, summaries of distribution and biology are given for all taxa. Male and female genitalia are illustrated in great detail. The nomenclature is revised and numerous new specific and generic synonymies are established. Full references to the primary literature are given. A new subfamily classification of the world Calliphoridae is proposed on the basis of cladistic principles. The definition and higher classification of the family and related groups are discussed.

TL;DR: Mitochondrial DNA was used to infer the phylogeny and genetic divergences of Chrysomya albiceps and C. rufifacies specimens from widely separated localities in the Old and New World, indicating that the 2 species were separate monophyletic lineages that have been separated for > 1 million years.
Abstract: Mitochondrial DNA was used to infer the phylogeny and genetic divergences of Chrysomya albiceps (Wiedemann) and C rufifacies (Maquart) specimens from widely separated localities in the Old and New World Analyses based on a 23-kb region including the genes for cytochrome oxidase subunits I and II indicated that the 2 species were separate monophyletic lineages that have been separated for >1 million years Analysis of DNA, in the form of either sequence or restriction fragment-length polymorphism (RFLP) data, will permit the identification of problematic specimens
