Extract

In No. 9–10, Vol. IV., of “Insect Life,” an account was given of the post-embyronic larva of the Bean Weevil, attention being called to some most interesting characteristics of this larva, which is possessed of temporary thoracic legs and some other strctures which admirably serve its locamotive needs until it has entered the bean, when, with a cast of the skin, they are lost and larva assumes the ordinary apodous form of weevil larvæ.
