Abstract
The endocrine glands and related nerves of diapause and nondiapause larvae of Diatraea grandiosella Dyar were examined. The form and anatomical relationships of the brain, corpus cardiacum-allatum complex (CC-CA), prothoracic glands, and associated nerves were determined. While no anatomical differences were detected between diapause and nondiapause larvae, morphometric data revealed that diapause larvae had significantly larger CC-CA complexes than nondiapause larvae.
