Mesothorax –
Large energy heart field
At the attachment
Swollen segments
A yellow sun, a black sun
Between the wings yellow
The length of imago
Denticulated at basal half
Dorsal longitude
A nymph’s inconvenience
A collection of pet insects
Generally speaking, among the tentacles
Specimen –
Fossilized species
The contents are granular
Changes of skin occur
The larvae, the pupae, lacunae
Thoracic atmosphere
The insect is exhausted
Weak and feeble light, wings glissant
