DIAGNOSIS—PUPARIUM. Where untreated puparia are available for study, they have no visible waxy secretions. However, during preparation for slide­mounting it becomes apparent that all puparia are protected by a tough covering, or “carapace”, that is resistant to all known chemical regimes for removal of puparial secretions: this covering often appears irregularly reticulate on slide­mounted specimens (Fig. 116), when it has not been mechanically removed. Individuals of some species develop in aggregations under leaves and are generally very cryptic, whereas puparia of some other species seen in

are more sparsely distributed (even if very numerous) and rusty­reddish in colour. Cuticle often entirely pale, but some species with dusky pigmentation, particularly submedially. Puparial margin clearly, but variously, modified at the tracheal openings. Longitudinal moulting suture reaching puparial margin; transverse moulting sutures usually almost reaching margin, sometimes much curved anteriad. Dorsal chaetotaxy (when discernible) typically maximally comprises paired submedian cephalic, first and eighth abdominal and caudal setae. Vasiform orifice cordate, not elevated posteriorly, mostly occupied by the operculum, but lingula often partly exposed and detail frequently visible through operculum. Segmentation often hardly evident medially, whether dorsal cover is present or absent. Geminate pore/porettes sometimes visible, sparsely distributed over dorsum.
