Carolinea 77

162 Carolinea 77 (2019) and their general appearance in the tritonymph already show a remarkable resemblance to that of the adult. Unpaired subunguinal seta s of tarsus I barbed, non-eupathidial, and inserted proximally to ante- rolateral setae in larva and nymphs. In adult, seta s is eupathidial and has its point of origin distally to the anterolateral setae. Setae pl’’, pv’, pv’’ of leg I experience a distinct distalward shift during ontogeny, not inserting on the tarsal bulb in the adult. Famulus regressive, extremely short and sunken in a sclerotized cup in immatures. Figure 14. Belba sculpta larva. a) leg I, antiaxial view. b) leg II, dorsal view. c) leg III, antiaxial view.
