Agulla, fore wing (Carpenter) Raphidiidse. narrow, the first sternite reduced, no cerci; wings similar, membranous, no large anal field; when at rest the wings usually lie roof-like over the abdomen, longitudinal veins almost always very numerous through re- peated branching, costal cell almost always with crossveins. Metamor- phosis complete, larvae terrestrial, aquatic only in Sisyridae, strongly man- dibulate, the mandibles and maxillae specialized for sucking the body juices of the insect prey; pupae in cocoons. 1. Veins and usually crossveins abundant, radial sector with several branches or forkings; wings not covered with a whitish powder. 2 Veins and crossveins few in number, the radial sector at most only forked; wings covered with a whitish powder; very small, slender, pale-colored rare species, of 3 to 10 mm. wing expanse. (Super- family CONIOPTERYGOIDEA) CONIOPTERYGID^E The following subfamilies are distinguished: a. Outer lobe of maxilla three-jointed; abdomen with four to six pairs of everted ventral pouches; stem of media of fore wings usually.
