Figures A-D redrawn from Painter (1962); Figures e-f drawn by William •7 ^ X* Phthiria spp. show similar, sharply pointed erect thorns, but in such cases they arise from the anterior part of what might possibly be called the anlage of the thorns, whereas in asilids they arise from the posterior edge. Bee fly pupae rather characteristically show a trans- verse band of close-set chitinous rods attached across many of the abdominal segments, from which at either posterior or anterior end or from both ends, the apices.
