Larvae of Huxelhydrus syntheticus Sharp, 1882 (Coleoptera: Dytiscidae: Bidessini)

The three larval instars of Huxelhydrus syntheticus Sharp, 1882, the only species of the New Zealand endemic genus Huxelhydrus Sharp, 1882, are described and illustrated including detailed morphometric and chaetotaxic analyses of the cephalic capsule, head appendages, legs, last abdominal segment an...
