1816 W. Kirby & W. Spence Introd. Entomol. (ed. 2) I. 67 Butterflies, moths, and some of the two-winged tribe, are in their pupa state also inclosed in a similar membranous envelope; but their legs, antennæ, and wings, are closely folded over the breast and sides; and the whole body inclosed in a common case or covering of a horny consistence, which admits a much less distinct view of the organs beneath it... These by Linné are denominated obtected pupæ.
