The eggs are pale yellow atfirst, but soon change to gray. The young larva is yellowish brown mottled with darkstreaks, especially below the stigmata; head twice aslarge as joint 2, and bilobed. Each joint is divided bya transverse impressed line, and on the top of the foldsthus made are four elevated spots, the anterior the is also a subdorsal and substigmatal row of similar Fig. L.

In thethird period the horns acquire their mature proportions,and the whole surface of the larva becomes more granu-lated. In the fourth or last period the blue pointsappear, and the lateral rows of tubercles lose their con-spicuousness to a great extent. The mature larva is inches long; general coloreither whitish or olive-green.
