- The three stages of the ancestral insect species - pronymph, nymph and adult - are proposed to be equivalent to the larva, pupa and adult stages of insects with complete metamorphosis.
- Red stripe appears as a diffuse stripe of pigment on the dorsum of larvae and pupae and is variable in expressivity and penetrance.
- Insect pupae have all of the major structures of the adult, and most of these structures have already reached their final dimensions.
- The adult flea is an excellent jumper passing through a complete life cycle consisting of egg, larva, pupa and adult.

Derivatives

pupal

adjective ˈpjuːp(ə)lˈpjup(ə)l

Prior to pupal emergence, brood combs were placed in an incubator and newly emerged workers were paint-marked on the thorax.
Example sentencesExamples
- They control everything from when animals sleep, wake, and are most alert, to when an insect emerges from its pupal case or a flower produces nectar.
- All of these results show that the pupal male was almost always killed by the already eclosed male immediately after, or even before, eclosion.
- Emerged adult Axarus and shed pupal exuviae were removed from the trap daily.
