Euborellia plebeja is a species of
earwig in the family
Anisolabididae.[1][2][3][4][5] Like other members of the
Anisolabididae family, this species has an elongated virga, a sclerotized tube that is part of the male genitalia.
Reproduction
An Indian study showed that the number of eggs laid varies from 21–40; the eggs hatch within 7–15 days. There are four nymphal instars. Although the sexes are not distinct during the nymphal
instars stage of development, they can be differentiated in the adult stage. All parts of the body increased in size during nymphal growth except for the 3rd antennal segment which remains almost constant in length.[6]
