Larva of Fannia canicularis ( aspect) The larvae, as mentioned before, have characteristic, fleshy protuber- ances which are more or less spinif erous, particularly at their bases. These spines are never forked, however, as in Fannia scalaris. The arrangement of the protuberances may be described as follows: First, a dorsal series consisting of ten pairs and commencing with an antenna-like pair at the anterior border of the prothoracic segment (Fig. 1, Segment II). The second pair, that on segment III, is quite short but the following pairs, proceeding caudad, become increasingly longer. These protuberances, with the exception of the antenna-like pair, are distinctly spiniferous and are situated somewhat back of the middle of their respective segments. Second, a latero-dorsal series commencing on segment III and continued poster- iorly. These are rather flagelliform and are also spiniferous, at least, at their bases. Third, a latero-ventral series which is similar to the series just described. The twelfth, or anal, segment is provided with three pairs of marginal flagelliform protuberances, the intermediate pair being small- er than either the anterior or posterior pair. On the dorsal surface and near the bases of the latero-dorsal protub- erances is a series of very small branched processes. These have been supposed to be of the nature of exuvial glands. On the ventral surface.
