Family Pieridae 



Altho closely related to Papilionidae, the larvae of Pieridae are of 

 a generalized structure little resembling their more advanced relatives. 

 They seem to be characterized principally by a lack of osmateria, fleshy 

 filaments, cephalic or anal horns, or special developments of the prolegs. 

 Chalazae, the only form of armature present, make some of the secon- 

 dary setae much more conspicuous than others. The conspicuous setae 

 are not the "primary" ones, as Forbes seems to have assumed; they are 

 too numerous and not in the right locations.
