Extract

The larva of Phaonia palpata closely resembles that of P. variegata in the structure of the buccopharyngeal armature and of the posterior spiracles. The absence of sharp teeth on the anterior ribbons and the presence of a blunt knob on the ventral edge of the oral bars distinguish the larva of P. palpata from larvae of other species of Phaonia.
