Forensic Entomology: A Review on Use of Insects for Investigation

Manisha Rana

The analysis of insects in criminal investigation is forensic entomology. Evidence from insects is useful if the information they provide is collected and interpreted appropriately. Insects can help you understand what happened in a criminal case and you can find them everywhere. The insects are the most common species on land and in the wetlands. Insects are drawn to the decomposing body right from the early stages, and can lay eggs in it. Forensic scientists may estimate the post-mortem index, any change in the location of the corpse as well as the cause of death by observing the insect population and the evolving larval stages.
