Extract

Ludius divaricatus (Corymbites) was described in 1853 by LeConte. The sexes were described as different species, the female being named Corymbites crassus. Blanchard in 1889 pointed out that crassus was the female of this species. The writer has examined cast skins of larvae from which both males and females developed and found no characteristic difference between them. The genus Ludius contains a large number of species, but only a few larvae have been described or illustrated.
