This document describes different types of insect legs and larvae. It outlines six main types of insect legs: cursorial for walking, fossorial for digging, raptorial for catching prey, saltatorial for jumping, natatorial for swimming, and pollen collecting legs with adaptations for carrying pollen. It also describes seven main types of insect larvae: campodeiform, carabiform, scarabaeiform, elateriform, eruciform, platyform, and vermiform. Finally, it outlines three main types of insect pupae: exarate, obtect, and coarctate.

1. TYPES OF INSECT’S LEGS
 CURSORIAL
 Wakling, running
 Ground beetles, cockroach

2.  FOSSORIAL
 Front leg, digging soil
 Mole cricket

3.  RAPTATORIAL
 Fore leg, adapted for catching prey
 Praying mantis

4.  SALTATORIAL
 Hind leg, jumping
 Enlarge femur
 grasshoppers

5.  NATATORIAL
 For swimmng
 With hairs
 Water beetles

6.  POLLEN COLLECTING
 tibia adaptation (corbicula)
 Pollen basket

7.  KAKI BERPELEKAP (pg 26)
 Tarsus of fore leg
 With structure that can grasp
 To hold on female beetle during mating

8. INSECTS LARVAE
(refer practical book page 37)
 CAMPODEIFORM
 elongated, flattened, active
 Neuroptera

9.  CARABIFORM (pg 29)
 flattened, well-developed legs
 with no filaments on the end of the abdomen.
 Carabidae (beetle)

10.  SCARABAEIFORM
 sluggish, cylindrical, c-shaped
 well-developed head and thoracic legs
 Scarabaeidae (beetle)

11.  ELATERIFORM
 Wireworm
 elongate, cylindrical, with a hard exoskeleton
and tiny legs
 Elateridae (click beetle)

12.  ERUCIFORM
 Catterpillar-like
 Cylindrical, obvious head, short antennae
 Butterflies and moths

13.  PLATYFORM
 Very flattened larva
 Leg hidden or none
 Diptera (flies), Lepidoptera, Coleoptera (beetle)

14.  VERMIFORM
 Maggot (berengga)
 legless, head undevelop
 Diptera (flies)

15. INSECTS PUPAE (PG 38)
 EXARATE (EKSARAT)
 the appendages, legs etc., are free and capable of
movement
 Most orders except butterflies (lepidoptera) &
flies (Diptera)

16.  OBTECT (OBTEK)
 the legs and other appendages are closely
appressed to the rest of the body
 not capable of free movement
 butterflies

17.  COARCTATE (KOARKTAT)
 Enclosed within the last larval skin
 acts as a cocoon protects the pupa
 flies (Diptera, of the sub-order Cyclorrhapha.).
