Across 3. larval larval stage in Peneaus, equivalent to zoea in crabs 6. dance that shows a specific direction and distance from the hive, first noted by Karl Von Frisch 7. located at the base of walking legs and can pull water out of damp soil to branchial chamber, Decapods 10. found at the base of antennules and used for equilibruim in Decapods 12. larval stage that follows zoea in Decapods 15. pincers in Decapods, the first pair of pereiopods 17. pharamone the Queen produces that will be picked up by workers to inhibit growth of reproduction system 19. pre-zoea stage in Peneaus that follows the Nauplis, lasts three instars 23. head appendage in Insecta that is similar to 2nd maxillae 24. incomplete metamorphosis in dragonflys, stone flys, and damsel flys 26. gill that attaches to the body wall, Decapods 27. corrosive chemcical used as a defensive mechanism in Diplopoda 29. enriched diet given to bees for the first three days but it later restricted to workers 30. gills that attaches to the coxa 31. 1st and 2nd pair of appendages used for copulation in males and brooding in females, Decapods

Down 1. complete metamorphosis in beetles, mosquitos, wasps and bees 2. segments resulting from the fusion of adjacent segments with 2 pr of feet, 2 pr of gangalia, etc; found in Diplopoda 4. gas exchange system in Insecta that breaks down into trachial tubes and is open to the surface 5. 2 gills that attach to articulating membrane, Decapods 8. direct development that is found only in Hemiptera 9. plankotic larval stage in Decapods that follows spawning and lasts 5-6 instars 11. flattened appendages attached to the base of the 2nd maxillia that draws in water, Decapods 13. dance used by bees to show location of food close to hive, first noted by Karl Von Frisch 14. last larval stage before juvenile in saltwater Decapods 16. wins located on the metathorax and used to stabilize in flight 18. gills found in the branchial chamber that are an extension of the carapace 20. larval stage that follows hatching in Peneaus, lasts 5 instars 21. part of the digestive tract in Insecta that is used to grind up food 22. small food is absorbed and final digestion takes place, also site of enzme production 25. animals capable of withstanding various salinities, usually Decapods and Callinectes 28. wing covers in beetles, located on the mesothorax, Uniramia

The look has changed! Some of the puzzles that people list for the public get indexed by the search engines (like Google). Some people find those puzzles and cannot figure out how to make a puzzle of their own. So this page now has the navigation sidebar.
