	The third stage larva.		Brugia L3	WBls:0000081
	An early stage in the life cycle of Brugia species, which develops from the egg and precedes the L1 stage.		Brugia microfilaria	WBls:0000665
	The life-stage that begins when a B. malayi individual is fully-developed and has reached maturity. Adult B. malayi (or at least adult females) can live for 10 years in a human host, and can outlive their rodent laboratory hosts; it is usual to state the chronological age of the nematodes in days or months post-infection, and occasionally post-patency (the production of first microfilariae).		Brugia adult	WBls:0000083
	The fourth stage larva. Should be conditioned by days post infection; as moulting is not synchronous, some samples are defined as L3/L4, indicating a mix of individuals as late L3, moulting, and early L4.		Brugia L4	WBls:0000082
