| The fourth stage larva. At 25 Centigrade, it ranges 40-49.5 hours after fertilization, 26-35.5 hours after hatch. | L4 larva Ce | WBls:0000038 | ||
| The first stage larva. At 25 Centigrade, it ranges 14-25.5 hours after fertilization, 0-11.5 hours after hatch. | L1 larva Ce | WBls:0000024 | ||
| The stage when an animal shifts from L1 larva to L2 larva. It includes the synthesis of new cuticle, cease of phrayngeal pumping during a lethargus stage, and the shed off of old cuticle. | L1-L2 molt Ce | WBls:0000026 |
