Incomplete metamorphosis<br />

life cycles<br />

Incomplete metamorphosis<br />

is found in grasshoppers,<br />

cockroaches, mayflies,<br />

dragonflies, termites, <strong>and</strong><br />

true bugs. The very young<br />

nymphs have no wings but as<br />

they moult they develop wing<br />

buds.<br />

At each moult the wing buds<br />

get longer until the adult<br />

emerges after the last moult<br />

with fully developed wings.<br />

Complete metamorphosis<br />

Complete metamorphosis<br />

is found in wasps, bees, ants,<br />

flies, beetles, cicadas, fleas,<br />

butterflies, moths, <strong>and</strong> others.<br />

Eggs hatch into larvae<br />

(e.g. caterpillars, maggots<br />

or grubs).<br />

The larva grows <strong>and</strong> moults<br />

several times before turning into<br />

a pupa. In the pupal stage the<br />

body is restructured to form the<br />

emergent winged adult.<br />
