Abstract

The external anatomy of the last instar larva and pupa of the crane fly, Indotipula demarcata (Brunetti, 1911) (Diptera: Tipulidae: Tipulinae), is described and illustrated from specimens collected in Taiwan. Comments concerning natural history and microhabitats of larvae are provided. This is the first detailed description with illustrations for the larva and pupa of Indotipula Edwards, 1931, Pupal characters resemble those of most species from advanced lineages within the subfamily Tipulinae.
