The first, second and third larval instars of Agyrtodes crassus and an unknown species of Zearagytodes, and the third instar of Dictydiella turneri are described in detail, illustrated and measured. The details of their chaetotaxy and porotaxy are provided. Larval characters of Dictydiella leleupi are compared with those of D. turneri. Morphological and chaetotaxic differences among mature larvae of the Agyrtodini genera Agyrtodes, Cholevomorpha, Dasypelates, Dictydiella, Eupelates, Paragyrtodes, Ragytodina and Zearagytodes are summarized. New morphological characters of Leiodidae larvae are documented and discussed.
