Larvarium: a tube or case made by a larva as a shelter or retreat. 

 Larvatae: masked; applied to coarctate and obtect pupae. 

 Larvina: a maggot: a dipterous larva without distinct head or legs. 

 Larvule: applied to early stages of Ephemerid larva when they appear to 



have no developed respiratory, circulatory or nervous systems. 

 Lashed: eyes that have a more or less complete fringe of stiff hairs or 



bristles at the orbits. 



Lasureus: a very dark blue [French blue with some black]. 

 Laterad: toward the side and away from the median line. 

 Lateral: relating, pertaining or attached to the side. 

 Lateral areas: in Hymcnoptera; on the metanotum, the three spaces between 



the median and lateral long carinae ; the upper is the external or first lateral 



basal area ; the second is the external or central lateral area ; the third is 



the middle, internal, apical or third lateral area. 

 Lateral bristles: in Diptcra; situated at or near the lateral margins of the 



abdominal segments. 

 Lateral carinae: in Orthoptcra; on^the head, extend downward from the 



front margin of the eyes : on prothorax extend along each lateral margin 



of the dorsum. 

 Lateral foveolae: in Orthoptcra; foveate depressions on the margins of the 



vertex near the front border of the eye. 



Lateral line: in caterpillars is at the margin of the dorsum between sub- 

 dorsal and supra-stigmatal line. 

 Lateral lobe: of the labium in Odonata, corresponds to the paraglossa with 



palpiger and palpus (Gerstaecker) or, more probably, to the palpus alone 



(Butler). 

 Lateral lobes: the deflexed portions of pronotum that cover the sides of 



prothorax in many Orthoptera: in certain Hymenoptcra, lie on each side 



of the parapsidal furrows of mesoscutum and = scapulae. 

 Lateral longitudinal area: of Hymcnoptera, extends between the median 



and pleural carinse of metanotum. 

 Lateral ridge: in slug caterpillars, extends longitudinally along the lateral 



series of abdominal tubercles. 

 Lateral scale: one of the lateral processes of the ovipositor in Cynipida-, 



lying within and below the anal scale. 



Lateral space: in slug caterpillars is the area on each side of the body be- 

 tween the subdorsal and lateral ridges. 

 Lateral sutures: of the thorax in Odonata, are situated on the sides of 



thorax, the first separating the metepisternum from the mesepimeron ; the 



second separating the metepisternum from the metepimeron ; the first more 



or less obsolete in the Anisopterd. 

 Lateral tubercle: lateral on thoracic and abdominal segments of caterpillars: 



it is 3 of the abdomen, 2a of thorax: constant (Dyar). 

 Latericeous: lateritius ; q. v. 

 Lateritius: yellowish-red; yellowish brick color [pale clay yellow with a 



little red]. 

 Later odor sal: the point of junction of dorsum and pleurum.
