Fink ( '25) studied the respiratory metabolism of the Japanese beetle egg at temperatures between 21" and 24Β°C. He found that at these temperatures, the respiratory rate remained low during the first 6 days and then increased rapidly. He called the first 6 days of the embryonic period the "formative
The occurrence in the literature of a large number of papers dealing with the respiratory metabolism of insect pupae attests to the general interest attached to the subject of insect metamorphosis. The results of many investigations, including those of Bataillon (1893), Luciani and Lo Monaco (1893),
