Figure
8. Side view of the head and thorax of a female snow
fly, Chinea nivicola, drawn by Dr. Byers. Normally,
a winged insect has a thorax full of muscles that
poer the wings, and eggs are confined to the abdominal
cavity. This shows eight eggs stored in the thorax
in the space left by the "missing" flight
muscles.
