Dorsal surface of lobes on annulet 2 with partly pigmented spicules that are more strongly developed than on other parts of thoracic dorsum.

Slightly wider than high (to epistomal suture). Without surface sculpture. Antenna with 5 antennomeres on large subconic antacorium. 4 basal antennomeres ring-like, apical antennomere peg-like. Clypeus with 4 setae. Postclypeus about half as long as preclypeus. Preclypeus with medial, laterally sclerotised (brown), transverse division (ca. medial third unsclerotised). Labrum slightly asymmetric (right lobe larger than left), undivided by longitudinal or transverse depressions, with 6 setae. Stipes and palpifer of maxilla each with a prominent lobe directed towards mandibles. Left mandible (Figs 3, 4) with straight-edged blade on outer (dorsal) surface, ending with a tooth on left side; a long tooth medially, contiguous with a well-developed mesal ridge, its edge produced in two rounded lobes, separated by a wide, rounded emargination (Fig. 3); inner surface with three well-defined teeth. Right mandible (Fig. 5) outer surface similar to left mandible, but straight-edged blade not ending in tooth; medial tooth very broad; inner surface with one wide, asymmetrical tooth closely adjoined by a pair of short, narrow teeth on a shared, rectangular flange; to left of this a straight, unsclerotised edge, about as long as three adjacent teeth together, and much lower than these; no mesal ridge present.</p><p>Cuticle of thorax and abdomen. Without dorsal macrostructures such as tubercles, spines, or longer setae, but with reticulate-spiculate surface structure on dorsum reaching to just above spiracles (Fig. 7), sometimes also on subspiracular and surpedal lobes (Fig. 8). To the naked eye, these parts appear “velvety”, but at magnifications of 40 –90× under a stereo microscope they might almost be described as “scaly” . The cuticle thus strongly resembles that of the easy bleeder species Rhadinoceraea micans (Klug, 1816) ( Blennocampinae) as described by Boevé (2009).</p><p>Thorax. Meso- and metathoracic substigmal lobes strongly protruding laterally. Prothorax with more or less strongly developed dorso-lateral lobes. Legs with 5 articles, bearing numerous long setae. Coxa longer than basal width. Trochanter wider than long; about half as long as coxa. Femur apically expanded on inner surface (Fig. 6); femur thus much wider apically than apical width of trochanter, and about twice as wide as base of tibia.</p><p>Abdomen. Segments 1-8 with 6 dorsal annulets. Prolegs on segments 2-8 and 10; 1.5 –1.7× as long as basal width, with 16-20 setae on outer surface (Fig. 8) and 12-20 on inner surface. Apex of suranal lobe and antero-dorsal surface of subanal lobe with numerous short setae.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/EF8F0737EB324E44C123783B50BDE678	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Head yellow, with large medial black fleck on posterior vertex. Fleck about as long as wide and not reaching to vertical furrows or frons. Large black patch, at least 5 × as long as ocularium, surrounds stemmatum and extends above level of dorsal apex of frons. Trunk dorsally grey to supraspiracular line, paler below this except for grey ventral edges of subspiracular and surpedal lobes. Coxae basally ringed with black. Anal area including anal prolegs pale orange. Note: dark coxal markings only become conspicuous in last feeding instars.</p><p>Head (Fig. 12). No depression present on each side of coronal suture dorsal of junction with frontal suture. Setae on vertex and parietals slightly darkened and as long as diameter of antennomere 1. Setae on lower frons and genae longer (as long as antenna) and paler. Right lobe of labrum only slightly larger than left.</p><p>Trunk. Prothorax with dorsal annulets clearly separated. Annulet 3 medially divided and lateral lobes slightly higher than lateral parts of 1 and 2. Entire surface of integument on dorsum above spiracles, and partly on subspiracular and surpedal lobes, densely and uniformly spiculate (Fig. 7); each spicule apically darkened.</p><p>Length of fully grown larvae: 20-21 mm (n = 7).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/BA4CA867DB936378332593A4817C49F4	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
