Text Appearing Before Image: gth 9-12 mm. Widely distributed throughout the Subsaharan region, except probably thewestern parts of Africa. It is common in South Africa and also occurs on someof the islands along the west coast such as Dassen Island. Larva First Instar Similar to mature larva, but spinose girdles on segments 7 and 8 and onposterior side of 11 much less distinct. Cephalopharyngeal skeleton (Fig. 2J)different from that of second and third instars; basal piece widely and deeplyemarginate behind; dorsal and ventral cornuae narrow and connected bynarrow central piece; anterior dorsal bridge very narrow and widely separatingthe two dorsal cornuae; parastomal sclerite absent. Mouth-hooks rather weak,and connected to median piece as shown in Figure 2J. Anterior spiracles veryindistinct and branches absent. Posterior spiracles (Fig. 2P) with partlydeveloped peritremal ring, orifices ovate and touching ventrally. Just beforemoulting larvae reach a length of 3,3-4,0 mm. 206 ANNALS OF THE SOUTH AFRICAN MUSEUM Text Appearing After Image: Fig. 2. Calliphora croceipalpis. A. Adult female. B.

SOUTH AFRICAN BLOW-FLIES 207 Second Instar Very similar to final instar, including number of branches on anteriorspiracles and spinose girdles on body segments. However, cephalopharyngealskeleton (Fig. 2N) much more heavily sclerotized than in first instar and rathersimilar to that of third instar larva, except for absenc Note About Images Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original work.
