The ' wriggling' motion is also very markedly shewn owing to the length of the body. Taeniorhynchus.—In natural waters, especially shallow trickling water forming pools, with a dense growth of spirogyra, etc., swamp water and river margins, the larvae of Taeniorhynchus will be readily found. 1. Note that the larva lies often embedded in the masses of green spirogyra or other thread- like algae. 2. Note the great transpare
