Most embiids, such as Antipaluria Enderlein(Clothodidae). reduce oviposition of wasp egg parasitesby packing a paste of pulverized material around their Development Adult female embiids exhibit little change in ap-pearance from first instar nymphs except, of course,for increased size and coloration. Ventrally, the eighthand ninth abdominal paragenital stemites adjacent tothe vulvas opening are modified, as is, of course,maturation of internal reproductive organs. Neoten-ic apterous males usually are similarly nymphoid but,as adults, are more melanic, or pigmented, and havedistinct cranial and abdominal terminalia characters. Males destined to have wings show the first ex-ternal evidences during an early nymphal instar. Atfirst they are merely very slight extensions of the pos-terior angles of the meso- and metascuta (Fig. 21 A).These are accompanied by increased development ofcertain setae near, and on, the lateral margins of thenota. The enlarged angles somewhat increase in sizeduring the stadium.
