Molt, Pupation, and Metamorphosis in Insects. The post-embryonic de- velopment of insects comprises an orderly series of stages in the course of which the insect becomes transformed from a larva to an adult or imago (Fig. 279). The process involves growth by means of a series of molts, and a metamorphosis in which the larval characters are lost and imaginal ones HEMIMETABOLOUS DEVELOPMENT — " NYMPHAL STAGES , OR Molf / IN8TAH \.
