Figure 3. Cephalic capsule width of each instar for Phoenicoprocta capistrata larvae of Type I (larvae that finish development in 6 instars) and Type II (larvae that finish development in 7 instars). At the 3rd instar the developmental pathways diverge showing a more abrupt increase in width for larvae that will have a 6th instar (Type I), but the last instar of both type of larva have a similar head width. The first 2 points of the curve represent the median values including the two types of larvae since no statistical difference was found for the first 2 larval instars. The numbers in brackets represents the number of individuals analyzed.
