SUPERNUMERARY LARVAL INSTARS IN CYCLORRHAPHOUS DIPTERA
1. The developmental program for metamorphosis is determined in third instar larvae of Calliphora and Sarcophaga very early after ecdysis. The process is activated by feeding and can be delayed for many days by starvation.2. High doses of ecdysterone (20 µg per larva) injected just after ecdysis or in starved larvae cause a precocious molt and the ...
