The transfor-mations are complete, andthe various members of thepupa are enclosed in acommon sheath or cover-ing (as the pupa of theAchemon Sphinx, Fig. 149). A few of the larva? of thesmaller species of Moths are destitute of legs ; others are pro-vided with ten legs (as the Spring Canker Worm, Fig. 150, a) ; Fig. Fig. 150. Fig. 151.
