Supplementary studies of ant larvae: Formicinae (Hymenoptera: Formicidae).

Abstract

Introduction This article describes formicine larvae received since the preparation of our most recent supplement ( 1 980). The larva of Proformica has not been previously described. Also included are references to formicine larvae in the literature and a discussion of the status of Colobopsis. The terms describing body profile and mandible shape are explained in our 1976 monograph. Our own contributions are cited by year and page only.
