- found: Britannica Micro.:v. 4, p. 17 ("The larvae of primitive flies have well-developed heads, chewing mouthparts, and pseudopods or prolegs. No fly larvae have true jointed thoracic legs. In the larvae of advanced forms, known as maggots, the heading is simple and the mouthparts consist only of a pair of hooks that move vertically ... prolegs are lacking.")
