larvae mainly by the dorsal surface of labrum scarcely and irregularly punctate, without coarse tubercles or strong keels. The anterior margin of the labrum usually presents four truncate teeth (76% of observed specimens), but some larvae have three or five teeth, including an abraded lateral tooth, or by a briefly notched central tooth. The number of pali varies from eight to 18, but more commonly the palidia have 13–14 pali (43% of observed specimens).

, because we found specimens of different instars through the Summer, Autumm and early Winter spanning a one year period. During May we found third instar larvae; during June and July third instar larvae, pupa and teneral adults; during August third instar larvae, pupae and adults were collected; during September, first, second and third instar larvae, some immature adults and many mature adults were obtained; during October, some pupae, teneral and mature adults were found; during November, only adults were collected inside pupal cells; and during December and January, third instar larvae and mature adults were obtained. Between February and April, we did not collect in the compost. During January, May and July we obtained adult specimens attracted to white fluorescent light in the same area. Apparently, life cycles of different generations are partially overlapped in this locality, but flying adults during May–July and January suggest the development of two generations each year.

The prepupa stage does not feed and reqires 30 days, and pupation requires 24–32 days. These data suggest that the complete life cycle requires nearly 180 days, and supports the hypothesis of a bivoltine condition for this population.

But, Choate also observed teneral adults and larvae in the breeding site during other months, such as February and March.
