Magnified x 40. Photo by Menke Larva, first instar. The body is a pale yellow-green. Across the center of each segment there is a band of brown specks, interrupted dorsally and laterally thus giving the appearance, when the insect is not ex- tended, of longitudinal yellow-green bands. There are the usual eight rows of colorless hairs arranged longitudinally, one to a segment, as shown on Plate 50, fig. A. The first, second and caudal segments are speckled with brown. Legs, colorless. Prolegs, pale greenish brown. Spiracles in- visible. Overlap, greenish brown. Head, buft'. with darker mouth parts. Ocelli, dark brown. In successive instars there is considerable variation in the color, ranging from a red brown through gradations to a greenish red. The lighter form will be here described. Ground color, greenish yellow, with the raised portions red- brown. There is a mid-dorsal soiled white line. Across each seg- ment there is a soiled white diagonal bar. placed laterally, also, in close association with the termination of each one of these bars is a horizontal dash, placed supra-stigmatallv. 108.
