*Parasitic Hymenoptera as Forensic Indicator Species- Forensic Entomology*

This chapter presents features of parasitic wasps. Necrophagous insects are the most impor‐ tant environmental evidence associated with a decomposing corpse. They reveal informa‐ tion for estimating the post mortem interval and determination of whether the body had been moved. They are used in toxicological analyses and in surveillance, as well as biosen‐ sors, which is some of their usefulness in forensic applications.

## *Molecular Genetics and its Applications in Forensic Sciences – Crime Scene Investigation*

This piece helps us to understand a framework of modern forensic medicine, a new field of forensic genetics, that mostly involves working with investigations which have as a goal hu‐ man genotype identification. This is thanks to their unique characteristics, which are nonrecurring and inherent for each individual application of molecular genetics in medico-legal and criminalistics identification.
