Cranial morphology of Deudorix isocrates (Fab.) (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae) larvae

Deudorix isocrates (Fab.) is a globally important agricultural pest. The study regarding this pest is mostly concentrated on its management. Several morphologically significant features have been overlooked. In the present study we examined the structure and function of the larval cranial morphology...
