At best such minds would consider my species a mere larval form.
The eggs are held by the female until they develop into a larval form.
This results in a sexually mature juvenile or larval form.
The larvae and the females (which keep their larval form) are predators.
Collection of insect adults provides a basis as to what species may be on the corpse in larval form.
It is a misunderstanding that the larval form always reflects the group's evolutionary history.
While in larval form, they scavenge by consuming dead insects on ground.
All insects have antenna, however they may be greatly reduced in the larval forms.
It is unknown whether the specimens found to date were adult or larval forms.
This means they get to sexual maturity and reproduce while still in a larval form.
