The pupa (Fig. 101) is one twenty-fifth of an inch in 

 length ; about the same color as the larva, only the transverse 

 markings are not so clear. The legs and antennae are 

 obscured by a film, the wings are in a sheath (see Fig. 101, 

 magnified), and the insect moves more sluggishly than when 

 in the larva state.
