Scatter plots of ratios of measured dimensions of different neuropteran larvae (see Table 1). a, head width:trunk width ratio vs. body length:trunk width ratio; this plot describes the general body shape. b, mandible length:body length ratio vs. body length:trunk width ratio; this plot illustrates the relative length of the mandibles compared to the body dimensions. c, labial palp length: body length ratio vs. mandible length: body length ratio; this plot shows the relative lengths of mandibles and labial palps; note the eccentric position of the new larva
