Introduction

Forensic entomology is the study of insects and other arthropods as it applies to legal investigations. One of the key roles of forensic entomology is estimating the minimum postmortem interval (PMImin) in criminal cases. PMImin is crucial in determining the timeline of events leading to a person’s death, which can aid in criminal investigations and legal proceedings. The use of insect evidence in estimating PMImin has been proven to be a valuable tool in forensic pathology, particularly in cases where traditional methods may be unreliable or unavailable.

This thesis aims to investigate the use of forensic entomology in estimating the minimum postmortem interval. It will explore the various factors that can affect the accuracy of PMImin estimates, such as insect species composition, developmental stage, temperature, and environmental conditions. This research seeks to contribute valuable insights into the field of forensic entomology and provide a better understanding of how insect evidence can be utilized effectively in estimating PMImin.
