These are depos-ited on the leaves of parsley, celery, parsnips, and otherrelated plants upon which the larvae feed. The young larvae are nearly black, with a broad whiteband across the middle, and another on the hind part ofthe body; thickly beset with bristles which arise fromlittle tubercles. The second stage differs little from thefirst; as also the third, though there are bright spots onthe body. The fourth stage is a bright green groundcolor with black bands, which are broad on the middleof the segments. These bands are interrupted by brick-red spots, which are arranged in three rows on each tubercles are scarcely perceptible. The fifth stage is the mature larva. When full grown Fig. 15. Fig. 16.
