But before this is done, a new skin is formed beneath the old one. After the old skin bursts open and the insect c'rawls forth, the new skin is sufficiently soft and elastic to allow for the increase in the size of the insect. Soon, the new skin becomes hardened like the old one, and after a time, is shed. This shedding o...f the skin is called molting. Some insects shed their skins only four or five times during the period of attaining their growth, while other species may molt twenty times or more. After the larva has attained its full growth, it changes its skin and its form, and becomes a pupa. The pupa stage is ordinarily one of inaction, except that very wonderful changes take place within the body itself. Usually the pupa has no power of moving around, but in many cases it can squirm somewhat, if disturbed. The pupa of the mosquito is active and is an exception to the rule.
