"Mature larvae of Lithurge, sensu stricto, Lithurge (Lithurgopsis), and Trichothurgus are described as is the pupal exuviae of Trichothurgus. An account is given of the nests of Trichothurgus dubius. The mature larvae of the Lithurginae are quite homogeneous and are very similar to those of the other megachilid subfamily, the Megachilinae. Appended is a taxonomic description of the Megachilidae and comparative taxonomic description of the Fideliidae; both descriptions are based on the mature larvae"--P. [1].
