Larwe

'nLarweis 'n duidelike jeugdige vorm wat baiediereondergaan voormetamorfosein hul volgende lewensfase. Diere met indirekte ontwikkeling soosinsekte,amfibieëofneteldierehet tipies 'n larwefase in hul lewensiklus.

'n Larwe se voorkoms verskil oor die algemeen baie van die volwasse vorm (bv. ruspes enskoenlappers), insluitend verskillende unieke strukture enorganewat nie in die volwasse vorm voorkom nie. Hul dieet kan ook aansienlik verskil.

Larwes is dikwels aangepas by verskillende omgewings as volwassenes. Sommige larwes soos paddavissies leef byvoorbeeld byna uitsluitlik in akwatiese omgewings, maar kan as volwassepaddasbuite water leef. Deur in 'n afsonderlike omgewing te leef, kan larwes skuiling teenroofdierekry en mededinging vir hulpbronne met die volwasse bevolking verminder.^[1]^[2]

Diere in die larwestadium salvoedselverbruik om hul oorgang na die volwasse vorm aan te wakker. In sommigeorganismessoos borselwurms en eendemossels is volwassenes onbeweeglik, maar hul larwes is beweeglik en gebruik hul mobiele larwevorm om hulself te versprei. Hierdie larwes wat vir verspreiding gebruik word, is óf planktotrofies (voeding) óf lesitotrofies (nie-voeding).

Sommige larwes is afhanklik van volwassenes om hulle te voed. By baie eusosiale Hymenoptera-spesies word die larwes deur vroulike werkers gevoed. In Ropalidia marginata, 'n soortperdyby,is die mannetjies ook in staat om larwes te voed, maar hulle is minder doeltreffend, spandeer meer tyd en kry minder kos vir die larwes.

Die larwes van sommige organismes (byvoorbeeld sommigesalamanders) kan donsharig word en ontwikkel nie verder in die volwasse vorm nie. Dit is 'n soort verjonging.^[3]^[4]^[5]^[6]
