Eyes Small: The eyes small of a spider are usually near the front or anterior end of the head, but some are directly on top. They are single facets, hence are called simple eyes small. They may number two, four, six, or eight; eight is the usual number. However, the cave spiders lack eyes small entirely. Regardless of the number, the eyes small are always placed in a definite arrangement. Often some pairs are much larger than others.
A typical insect is characterized by three divisions to the body—the head, the thorax, and the abdomen. Attached to the thorax are six jointed legs, three on each side, and sometimes wings.
eyes small: The eyes small, when present, are placed somewhere upon the head and are of two types: simple eyes small, called ocelli, which are found in insect larvae and in many adults; and compound eyes small, which are found in adult insects and in the immature stages of types which resemble the adult during growth.
Small; eyes small red; body plump, yellowish; wings clear. LARVAE: Maggotlike; live in fruit pulp where they pupate. Larvae and eggs so small they are seldom noticed.
Use small fruit jar; moisten bottom. Put in any soft, juicy, partially crushed fruit; overripe banana excellent. Leave jar in exposed spot;do not allow fruit or bottom of jar to become dry. After fruit flies have swarmed over bait for several days, place jar in cage with animals to be fed. Adults soon emerge and supply pets with food. |
