The first documented use of the larvae of the hairy maggot blow fly, Chrysomya rufifacies, for estimating the postmortem interval (PMI) of a decomposing human corpse in Thailand is reported. A honeycomb-like wound observed on one leg of the corpse was infested with numerous third-stage C. rufifacies larvae. Based on the pupae and larvae present in accordance with the ambient temperature previously recorded, six days postmortem was estimated for a corpse at the time of its discovery and investigation. Since adult C. rufifacies specimens have been collected in many parts of both urban and mountainous areas in Thailand, more biological information about this blowfly species is needed to increase the accuracy of forensic investigations where the fly is present.
据报道，在泰国首次有记录地使用毛蛆丽蝇（Chrysomya rufifacies）的幼虫来估计一具正在腐烂的人类尸体的死后间隔时间（PMI）。在尸体的一条腿上观察到一个蜂窝状伤口，上面布满了大量毛蛆丽蝇的第三龄幼虫。根据先前记录的环境温度以及当时存在的蛹和幼虫，估计该尸体在被发现和调查时已死亡六天。由于在泰国的城市和山区许多地方都采集到了成年毛蛆丽蝇标本，因此需要更多关于这种丽蝇物种的生物学信息，以提高在有这种苍蝇存在的情况下法医调查的准确性。
