Known larva and pupa. Lutz was originally described based on females, giving as well bref references to larva and pupa (Lutz, 1913). These inmatures stages were posteriolly redescribed by Lane (1947), Barbosa (1952) and Forattini (1957), the knowledge of is morphology, has not been adequately achieved. Ronderos & spinelli (2000) redescribed, which were performed on the examinationthrough both, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Larva and pupa were fully re described by Marino et al., (2013). They are illustrated and photographed using binocular microscope, phase-contrast stereoscope at oil immersion and SEM.
