Table 1.

Actual and expected minimum (Min), median (Med), and maximum (Max) accumulated degree hours (ADH) associated with Cochliomyia macellaria development, using a minimum developmental threshold of 10° C, based on third instar range (time present on carcasses) and body lengths representing the 10th, 50th, and 90th percentiles. White and green areas represent actual values while gray areas represent expected values [30].
