The hog eats a white grub that is host for the larval form.

The third larval form only a few live to reach.

Wings and flight there will be none: the female retains her humble larval form, but she kindles her blazing beacon.

And so I develop my theory of a primary larval form, differing in every way from the one which I know.

In the vast majority of insects subject to metamorphoses, the hatching yields the larval form which will remain unchanged until the nymphosis.

Cysticercosis, a disease caused by the larval form of Taenia solium, is diagnosed by detection of specific antibodies or by imaging techniques.

The newly-hatched and tiny trilobite larva, known as the protaspis, is very near to the primitive larval form of all the crustacea.

The vesicles were identified under light microscopic examination as cysticerci and by molecular diagnosis as Cysticercus longicollis, the larval form of T. crassiceps.

The first larval form is described by M. Fabre, as an active, minute insect, furnished with six legs, two long antennae, and four eyes.

The larval forms were found microscopically in the blood, and one mature form in the heart.

People become infected when larval forms of the parasite penetrate the skin during contact with infested water.

Up to this time the true significance of the luxuriance and diversity of larval forms had never seriously engaged the attention of systematists in entomology.
