Abstract
The larva of Archilestes exoletus (Hagen in Selys, 1862) is described and illustrated based on exuviae of reared larvae collected in Cascavel, State of Parana, Brazil. The larva of A. exoletus can be distinguished from other species of Archilestes ofwhich the larva has been described by the absence of a lateral spine at the margin of the 4th abdominal segment and having the cleft of the ligula closed.
