Project Description

To draw accurate conclusions in the cases they work on, forensic entomologists need accurate data about what species of blow flies are active throughout the year in a climate similar to the one in the case. The limited published data from Arizona needs to be updated and built upon. This preliminary research study took the first steps toward filling that gap of knowledge.
