PLEBEIA (PLEBEIA) DRORYANA (FRIESE) View in CoL

Please see Lucas de Oliveira (1965) for the description and diagram of the predefecating larva of Plebeia droryana (Friese) . The length of her specimens recorded here in table 1 was derived from her figure 1, which also shows that its head size was moderate compared with body size. This is also true for the 6 postdefecating specimens of the same species listed here.
