Dans la première moitié de ce traité fondateur, l'entomologiste Jean-Pierre Mégnin (1828-1905) résume de façon parfaitement accessible quinze ans d'études sur la datation de la mort d'un sujet par l'observation de son cadavre sur lequel se sont succédé, à intervalles réguliers, de nombreuses ± escouades d'insectes. Nous suivons donc avec lui les phases principales de l'envahissement et de la destruction de l'hôte par ses ± invités , phases éclairantes tant du point de vue zoologique que de celui de la médecine légale. La seconde moitié du livre renferme dix-neuf observations médico-légales faites par l'auteur et quelques autres naturalistes, observations qui constituent d'excellents exemples d'application. L'ouvrage est illustré d'une dizaine d'aquarelles peintes par Xavier Carteret à l'occasion de notre édition.

Quatrième de couverture : "Des vies après la mort : L’idée fascine autant qu’elle dégoûte : après la mort, le corps devient grouillant d’une autre forme de vie, peuplée d’asticots voraces, de guêpes parasites et de scarabées prédateurs. Toutes ces espèces partagent un but : profiter au plus vite de cette ressource, s’y développer et s’y multiplier tant que possible. À ce jeu, les mouches sont souvent les plus rapides et les plus efficaces. En quelques heures, elles ont pondu des centaines d’œufs, donnant naissance à autant d’asticots. Des larves affamées qui vont emmagasiner chaleur et nourriture, allant jusqu’à générer leur propre chauffage collectif. - Le cadavre, un écosystème : Le cadavre est un véritable écosystème, et de nombreuses autres espèces s’y développent. On y croise ainsi des mites, délaissant penderies et placards au profit de peau séchée et cheveux. Ou encore des coléoptères fossoyeurs, qui n’hésitent pas à enterrer de petits cadavres pour mieux protéger leur progéniture. Observateur de cette faune particulière, l’entomologiste cherche à décrypter la biologie de ces espèces dans un but précis : dater l’arrivée des insectes et déterminer le moment de la mort. - Un panorama de l'entomologie forensique : Cet ouvrage, accessible au curieux comme au spécialiste, s’attache à présenter les différentes espèces rencontrées, leur biologie et leur utilisation pour dater le décès. Il dresse également un panorama des développements récents en entomologie forensique et détaille les possibilités toujours grandissantes dans ce domaine. Rédigé par des spécialistes francophones de renommée internationale, vous y trouverez une synthèse des connaissances actuelles sur le sujet."

Twenty years ago the use of entomology in a crime scene investigation was considered bizarre, despite the solid scientific background and documented historical applications. Today, the use of insect evidence is an accepted sub-discipline in modern forensic science. Nevertheless, forensic entomology is still growing and remains a living scientific discipline with many branches. The present book highlights this diversity by collecting contributions dealing with novel aspects, for example, marine biology, chemical ecology and acarology, as well as the basic disciplines like entomotoxiciology and decomposition. It also offers keys for immature insects, discussions of important pitfalls and introductions to the statistical evaluation of data sets. Many topics are covered in depth for the first time. All the authors are leading experts in their respective fields of research. Their chapters show directions for future research for both new and veteran forensic entomologists. Undoubtedly, forensic entomology will continue to grow and attract new professionals, students, as well as interested observers. This book is written for all of them.

In 2001, Benecke concluded a review on the history of forensic entomology with these optimistic words: "basic research and advanced application of forensic entomology (…) has opened the way to routine casework". At the same time, the TV show Crime Scene Investigation (CSI) largely brought forensic entomology to light. However, the show also cruelly pointed out its limits: After the team leader explained to his colleague how insects can help determine the time of death, the team leader added "You've still got to convince a jury", to which the colleague promptly responded "On guns. It's got to be better than bugs. Less Latin." Indeed, several factors—including complexity, inherent limitations, and the rapid evolution of scientific knowledge—explain the slow acceptance of insect-based evidence. In this context, this Special Issue focuses on the articulation between laboratory studies and casework, a major challenge for the future of forensic entomology.
