| def | "The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the prepupa over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The prepupal stage is a life stage interposed between the larval and the pupal stages in insects that undergo a complete metamorphosis. The start of the pre-pupal stage is marked by pupariation, and the end is marked by pupation." [GOC:mtg_sensu, http://sdb.bio.purdue.edu/fly/aimain/1adult.htm] |
