Fig. 11.—Second-stage larva of Hypoderma lineatum in submucous tissues of gullet. Enlarged ventrally on the posterior borders of segments 2 to 10, inclusive, and presents an excellent distinguishing characteristic for this species. The posterior stig- mal plates are somewhat kidney shaped, flat, or slightly excavated toward the pseudostigmatic orifice, and have radiating furrows which are very distinct in the younger specimens (figs. 16, d; 17)..
