Carrion insects are those insects associated with decomposing remains. The processes of decomposition begin within a few minutes of death. Decomposing remains offer a temporary, changing site of concentrated resources which are exploited by a wide range of organisms, of which arthropods are often the first to arrive and the predominant exploitive group. However, not all arthropods found on or near decomposing remains will have an active role in the decay process. ==Ecological roles== Carrion insects are commonly described based on their ecological role.〔 Four commonly described roles are: # Necrophagous species # Predators and parasites of necrophagous species # Omnivorous species # Adventive species 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Carrion insects」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
