Submarginal nervure: in Hymenoptera (Nort.); the irregular line of veins extending on the whole parallel with the outer margin; composed in part of media 1, 2, 3 and 4, the medial cross vein and cubitus 1 (Comst.). Submedian cells: in Hymenoptera (Pack.); 1st = cubital + cubital 1 (Comst.) 2d = medial 3 (Comst.); 3d = 2d medial 2 (Comst.). Submedian vein: in Odonata, =cubitus (Comst.); in Lepidoptera, = 1st anal (Comst.), runs from base of primaries to the hind angle, close to the inner margin and is v. 1 of the numerical series. Submental: pertaining to the sub-mentum. Submental peduncle: in Coleoptera, the prolonged portion of the gula supporting the mentum. Submentum: the basal sclerite of the labium, by means of which it is attached to the head. Subnodal sector: in Odonata, = radial sector (Comst.). Sub-nymph: applied to the resting or pupal stage of female Coccidae; also to a supernumerary stage before the formation of the pupa, and thus = pseudo-pupa. Sub-ocellate: an ocellate spot that is blind or without a pupil. Sub-ocular: beneath or below the eyes. Sub-oesophageal ganglion: situated in the head below the oesophagus, formed by a union of the posterior three primitive head ganglia. Sub-order: a division of an order higher than a family, based on a character common to a large series of species; e.g. the Homoptera and Heteroptera in the order of Hemiptera. Sub-pedunculate: in Coleoptera, when the constriction between pro- and meso-thorax is so great as to give the appearance of a narrow waist. Subreniform: a rounded spot or outline, below and sometimes attached to the reniform spot in Catocala and some allied Noctuids. Sub-parallel: nearly parallel. Sub-primary sub-ventral tubercle: on the thoracic and abdominal segments of caterpillars; sub-ventral, posterior, not present in the primitive first stage; it is VI of the abdomen, V of the thorax: constant. Sub-sellate: nearly like or approaching the form of a saddle. Sub-servate: denticulate. Subspecies: a well-marked form of a species differing from the type in some character of color or maculation which is recognizable but does not prevent a fertile union: an indefinite and opinionative division. Subspiracular line: in caterpillars, margins the spiracles inferiorly. Substigmatal: that portion of the marginal cell below the stigma, in bees: = 1st radial 1 (Comst.): applied to a line in caterpillars = subspiracular. Sub-teres: nearly but not quite cylindrical. Subtile -is: slightly; feebly; small; pretty; graceful. Subtriangular space: = internal triangle: see triangle. Subtus: beneath; at the under surface. Subulate: awl-shaped: linear at base, attenuate at tip. Subulicornia: with awl-shaped antennae; applied to a combination of Odonata and Ephemerida. Subuliform: formed like an awl: = subulate. Sub-ventral line: in caterpillars, extends along the sides just above the base of the feet at lie edge between lateral and ventral.
