terior femur has three or more light spots and above them a light 

 stripe, and the anterior femur has a similar light stripe, which is the 

 continuation of the lateral light line. This lateral line forks on the 

 shoulder, part of it running forward onto the side of the neck, while 

 part of it goes onto the upper arm in a more or less broken and

 in the adult stage.
