The fascicular and interfascicular cambia thus join up to form a ring (in three dimensions, a tube) which separates the primary xylem and primary phloem, the cambium ring. The vascular cambium produces secondary xylem on the inside of the ring, and secondary phloem on the outside, pushing the primary xylem and phloem apart.
The thoracic legs are known as true legs and the abdominal legs are called prolegs. [64] The true legs vary little in the Lepidoptera except for reduction in certain leaf-miners and elongation in the family Notodontidae. [59]: 114 The prolegs contain a number of small hooks on the tip, which are known as crochets. The families of Lepidoptera ...
The wings are clear with light brown veins, and the legs and antennae are black. The larvae of the fly may be used for maggot therapy, are commonly used in forensic entomology, and can be the cause of myiasis in livestock and pets. The common green bottle fly emerges in the spring for mating.
The back four legs are yellowish in colour, and the front two legs are yellow at the base and black at the ends. [5] They tend to rest on their back four legs and move their front two legs above their head, making them appear like antennae on the Hymenoptera species that they mimic.

In the hindwings of most Orthoptera, a secondary vena dividens forms a rib in the vannal fold. The vannus is usually triangular in shape, and its veins typically spread out from the third axillary like the ribs of a fan. Some of the vannal veins may be branched, and secondary veins may alternate with the primary veins.
Earlywood – the portion of the annual growth ring that is formed early in the season. Epidermis – a layer of cells that cover all primary tissue, separating it from the outside environment. Erect – growing upright. Flower bud – a bud from which only flowers develop; Fruticose – woody stemmed with a shrub-like habit.
The secondary screwworm (Cochliomyia macellaria) has become one of the principal species on which to base post mortem interval estimations because its succession and occurrence on decomposing remains has been well defined. The secondary screwworm is found throughout the United States and the American tropics, and in southern Canada during summers.
1. In flowering plants, a ring of structures that may be united in a tube, arising from the corolla or perianth of a flower and standing between the perianth lobes and the stamen s. The trumpet of a daffodil is a corona. 2. In grasses, a hardened ring of tissue surmounting the lemma in some species. cortex. pl. cortexes or cortices
