(Zool.)
The true, or six-legged, insects; insects other than
myriapods and arachnids.
[1913 Webster]
Note: The Hexapoda have the head, thorax, and abdomen
differentiated, and are mostly winged. They have three
pairs of mouth organs, viz., mandibles, maxill[ae], and
the second maxill[ae] or labial palpi; three pairs of
thoracic legs; and abdominal legs, which are present
only in some of the lowest forms, and in the larval
state of some of the higher ones. Many (the Metabola)
undergo a complete metamorphosis, having larv[ae]
(known as maggots, grubs, caterpillars) very unlike the
adult, and pass through a quiescent pupa state in which
no food is taken; others (the Hemimetabola) have
larv[ae] much like the adult, expert in lacking wings,
and an active pupa, in which rudimentary wings appear.
See Insecta. The Hexapoda are divided into several
orders.

insects, from which they differ in having the body made up of
numerous similar segments, nearly all of which bear true
jointed legs. They have one pair of antennae, three pairs of
mouth organs, and numerous tracheae, similar to those of true
insects. The larvae, when first hatched, often have but three
pairs of legs. See Centiped, Galleyworm, Milliped.
[1913 Webster]
Note: The existing Myriapoda are divided into three orders:
Chilopoda, Chilognatha or Diplopoda, and
Pauropoda (see these words in the Vocabulary). Large
fossil species (very different from any living forms)
are found in the Carboniferous formation.

Parotia sexsetacea; the King bird of paradise is
Cincinnurus regius. The name is also applied to the
