Common soluble carbohydrates affect the growth, survival, and fatty acid profile of black soldier fly larvae Hermetia illucens (Stratiomyidae)

Abstract The black soldier fly, Hermetia illucens (L. 1758), is an omnivorous saprophagous insect with a high potential for valorizing organic by-products rich in carbohydrates.
