Fig. 88.—Pupa of Gonomyia sulphurelloides, Alex, a, pronotal breathing horn; b, antennal sheath; c, mouth parts; d, male cauda (lateral view); e, female cauda (lateral view). Pupa.—Length 6-5-6-8 mm., diameter -9-1 mm. Colour of abdomen pale yellow; thorax, wing pads and head light brown; breathing horns whitish yellow; eyes black; mature pupae reveal darker toning to above colours. Cephalic crest absent. Antennae (fig. 88, b) moderately long, extending to base of wing pad, markedly crenulate along outer basal margin. Labrum (fig. 88, c) triangular, apex rounded; labial lobes truncate, slightly rounded at each outer angle; maxillary palpi straight, stout at origin, tapering to narrow apices. Thorax behind breathing horns flattened, each declivity separated by a low median carina and bounded by a low raised ridge, directed laterad along dorso-cephalic angle of mesonotum to above insertion of wing pads, its margin irregularly serrate. Pronotal breathing.
