Since insects are the main dominant group of the Ecosphere, in terms of volume and number; there are many different scientific fields in which insects take place and study. "Forensic entomology" is the most current and interdisciplinary of these fields. Our study aimed to identify individuals belonging to the Muscidae (Insecta: Diptera) family, which has forensic importance within the scope of Nevşehir province. Muscidae species have forensic importance due to their wide distribution, presence in almost every environment and being close to humans. In the decay process, female individuals lay their eggs in natural cavities on the body, open wounds or on bloody clothes. Experiment and application part of the study was carried out in a period of approximately 6 months between April and October 2017. In this study, New Zealand rabbits which were inactive at Ankara University Faculty of Medicine Experimental Animals Laboratory were used. The carcasses are buried in a sheltered area surrounded by wire fences on the land of Nevşehir Hacı Bektaş Veli University. Burying to the soil at a depth of 30 cm was made, in pairs, with and without clothes. On the days determined as 10, 20, 30, 60, 90, 120 and 180, samples were collected from the body. As a result of evaluating the collected samples, 3 species from the Muscidae family, which are involved in the forensic entomological process, in the process of ecological succession, have been identified. These species are; Musca domestica, Hydrotaea capensis, Stomoxys calcitrans. |
