ABSTRACT
The morphology of the third-instar larva of Anastrepha leptozona Hendel is characterized using optical and scanning electron microscopy. The antennomaxillary complex, oral ridges, labium, stomal sensory organ, cephalopharyngeal skeleton, anterior and posterior spiracles and caudal segment are described and illustrated. Mature larvae of A. leptozona present a "ventral sclerite" below the pharyngeal sclerite which is characterized for the first time in Anastrepha species.
RESUMO
A morfologia da larva do terceiro ínstar de Anastrepha leptozona Hendel é descrita. São analisados, em microscopia de luz e de varredura, o complexo antenomaxilar, as margens da abertura oral, o bordo, o órgão oral, o esqueleto cefalofaríngeo, os espiráculos anterior e posterior e o segmento caudal. As larvas do terceiro ínstar de A. leptozona têm um "esclerito ventral" abaixo do esclerito faríngeo, o qual é caracterizado pela primeira vez em espécies de Anastrepha.
