Aparaglossata
Clade of insects
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Aparaglossata is a clade of insects comprising all modern holometabolous insects except for Hymenoptera.[1] The clade is named for one of its most recognizable synapomorphies (shared distinguishing feature); the absence of paraglossae. The clade is also characterized by a modification of the ovipositor and a reduction in number of Malpighian tubules.
