Uniquely, these two species have antennomaxillary organs borne on elongate, cylindrical projections at the apex of the pseudocephalon. Between the projections is a shallow groove, along which the head skeleton protracts and retracts.

: rear compartment, anal segment to the metathorax, is hemispherical or domed in shape and rigid, although not sclerotised, and ventrally coated in fine setae. The metathorax is divided into an upper, basal section and a lower apical one, the latter being concealed along with the front compartments, under the basal section with the border between them being a continuation of a band of setae that circumvents the entire ventral margin of the body. The middle compartment, mesothorax to the pseudocephalon, is narrow in relation to the rear section and highly retractile. The relatively large mandibles are at the front of the head skeleton (

). Locomotion is slow and, if a barrier or obstacle is encountered, the larva contracts the body at the point of contact and by shuffling backwards and sideways, attempts to bypass it. The larva can also rotate the entire body on a point, but does not grip the substrate with mandibles. Feeding consists of repeated lunges into the prey via protraction and retraction of the head skeleton. When protracting, the mandibles are depressed to a shallow 25–40 degrees angle relative to the horizontal. At the limit of protraction, the labial sclerites and plate depress to almost a right angle and the mandibles rise to the horizontal and may separate slightly, these actions expose the opening of the pharynx ready for food to be sucked in (Film 5,

It sweeps by holding on with the rear end and moving the front of the body up to about 75 degrees to either side. Unlike other species, the border between the rear and front compartments is not fixed and, depending on the extent of sweeping, the body bends at any point from about the sixth abdominal segment to the mesothorax. To initiate forward locomotion, muscles contract in front of the anus and a crease forms across the body. This pulls the grasping bar on to the substrate and a peristaltic wave moves forward. The sides of the body bulge with body fluids which forces the ventral surface against the substrate and gripping power moves along the body. When the peristaltic wave reaches the prothorax, it inclines and either holds on using a prominent, mid-ventral pad or, the tip of the head skeleton is pressed against the substrate and held there, presumably by suction pressure from the pump. Simultaneously, the crease at the rear end fills out and the grasping bar lifts to release the anal segment which is pulled forward and another peristaltic wave begins. When it reaches the prothorax, it lifts and extends forward and ahead of the previous position and so, forward locomotion occurs. The maximum rate recorded was one body length in 2.4 seconds.</paragraph>

The larva can also raise the body up as far as the fourth and fifth abdominal segments, and move forward with just the rear three or four segments while the front end remains elevated (Film 6). If flocculence is encountered when lunging for food, it probes it with the head skeleton and if it sticks, the larva wipes it off on the substrate. If a wax-coated droplet of honeydew is encountered, it pierces it and imbibes or spills the contents. If it encounters an aphid with any part of the ventral surface of the anterior compartments, the larva shuffles backwards until it can bend the prothorax and capture it. Capture involves holding it in place with sticky saliva, contraction of the prothoracic apex to form a cup-shape into which the prey is drawn and simultaneously exposes the triangular, lateral hooks to further grip the prey. Feeding occurs by protraction of the head skeleton co-ordinated with contraction of the prothorax which presses the sharp apices of the labrum and labial plate against the prey until it is pierced and, usually, the prey is lifted from the substrate. To extract food, the head skeleton protracts and retracts repeatedly and the labium lowers so that prey fluids enter the head skeleton and are sucked in by the pump (Film 7,

The upper arm articulates with the mandibles, while the lower arm comprising labial plate and labial sclerites is incorporated into a new structure, the atrium. Also new is an oral cavity and an anal lobe, and food gathering includes a functional partnership between the pseudocephalon and mandibles. Four compartments are usually present: anal segment to abdominal segment 2; abdominal segment 1 to the anterior spiracles; anterior spiracles to the apex of the prothorax and, the head skeleton.

). Rear compartment segments relatively uniform and locomotory spicules straddle the borders between segments, always with fewer spicules on the segment in front; those spicules may incline forward and those behind incline backwards. Similar spicules coat the anal lobe and the anterior face of the prothorax, and reduced numbers are usually present at the border between abdominal segment 1 and the metathorax. The pseudocephalon comprises a pair of lobes each of which ensheaths a mandible with a gap ventro-apically through which the mandible protrudes (

). During depression, the mandibles separate to about three times their distance apart at elevation (

Forward locomotion starts with contraction across the ventral and lower lateral margins of the seventh abdominal segment anterior to the anus, which presses the anal lobe against the substrate, and is followed by a peristaltic wave passing along the body. When the wave reaches the prothorax, a lunge takes place and the mandibles depress and grip the substrate. This momentarily blocks the next wave and, at the segment border with the prothorax, the mesothorax folds and slides forward over the prothorax as far as the anterior spiracles (

) and the front of the prothorax slides over the pseudocephalon (

). At the next wave, the mandibles elevate and a lunge occurs which moves the anterior end ahead of the previous position. The main difference between feeding and locomotory lunges is that, in locomotion, the mandibles partially depress to grip the substrate, whereas in feeding, the mandibles depress to their limit.
