Extract

Various authors have given general descriptions of the immature stages of various species of Stethorus, and Böving (1917) described certain morphological festures of the larvae of S. punctum (Leconte) and S. utilis (Horn), but no complete account of the morphology of these stages in any species of the genus has apparently been published. Clement (1880) gave the most thorough of the earlier descriptions of the immature stages of S. punctillum Weise.
