Abstract
Most prominent insects were 12 spp. of Coleoptera, 3 Hymenoptera, and 4 Diptera, as well as fly ova and larvae. Total number of insects increased during first 5 days and fluctuated thereafter. Ford-chain relations were recognized between scavengers, predators, and parasites on larvae.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
