As the embryo became nearly developed the color of the egg changed to a dull blue, with a black spot near the middle of the top. Hatching occurred in four or five days. The percentage failing to hatch was very small and no para- sites were developed in this lot of eggs. LARVA. As they left the eggs the larva? were about ™™ long. Their color was a uniform dark brown, and the length of the hairs was nearly equal to that of their l)odies. 22104—No. 44—04 6.
