Larval Description and Phylogenetic Placement of the South African Endemic Genera Coelhydrus Sharp and Darwinhydrus Sharp (Coleoptera: Dytiscidae: Hydroporinae: Hyphydrini)
The third instars of Coelhydrus brevicollis Sharp and Darwinhydrus solidus Sharp are described and illustrated for the first time, with detailed morphometric and chaetotaxic analyses of the cephalic capsule, head appendages, legs, last abdominal segment, and urogomphi. A key for the identification o...
