Hemimetabolous insects undergo incomplete metamorphosis, which includes three life stages: egg, nymph, and adult. Common examples of hemimetabolous insects include grasshoppers, crickets, cockroaches, dragonflies, mayflies, and true bugs (such as aphids and cicadas). In this type of development, nymphs often resemble smaller versions of the adults and typically live in similar habitats.
Hemimetabolous insects have a gradual change from larva to adult and the larva resembles the adult it will become. Holometabgolous insects have a pupal instar and the larva does not resemble the adult.
These insects either have hemimetabolous development, and undergo an incomplete or partial metamorphosis, or holometabolous development, which undergo a complete metamorphosis, including a pupal or resting stage between the larval and adult forms. In hemimetabolous insects, immature stages are called nymphs.
Hemimetabolous
Grasshoppers do not go through a pupal stage. Insects fall into two major groups, holometabolous (complete metamorphosis: pupal stage) and hemimetabolous (incomplete metamorphosis: no pupal stage). Grasshoppers are hemimetabolous, like crickets, mayflies, stinkbugs, etc., and insects that undergoe incomplete metamorphosis do not have a pupal stage. Holometabolous insects such as flies, butterflies, beetles, wasps, etc. do undergoe complete metamorphosis and they all have a pupal stage.
Some examples of insects that do not fly include ants, beetles, and cockroaches. These insects primarily move around by walking or crawling.
The way in which insects develop, grow, and change form is referred to as metamorphosis. Insects undergo distinct life stages, typically including egg, larva (or nymph), pupa, and adult. There are two main types of metamorphosis: complete (holometabolous), which involves a dramatic transformation, and incomplete (hemimetabolous), where the changes are more gradual. This process allows insects to adapt to different environments and ecological niches throughout their life cycle.
All insects are invertebrates. Common examples include beetles, flies, bees, wants, wasps, butterflies, moths, and grasshoppers.
