Classification Diagnostic Features of Larvae
  • Larva. Form very much more robust than in others of the genus; pubescence much coarser, stiff and very much sparser. Mandible shorter and more robust. Prothorax more chitinized on sides; posterior two-thirds of pronotum rugulose, dull, covered with sparse velvety pubescence. Ampullar tubercles very large. Spiracles very large and peritreme very strongly chitinized. Adapted from Craighead (1923).
