From: Convergent evolution and convergent loss in the grasping structures of immature earwigs and aphidlion-like larvae as demonstrated by about 100-million-year-old fossils

Fig. 8

Scatterplot of the first two principal components describing the outlines of grasping structures of only immature specimens, namely of earwig cerci and of aphidlion(-like) lacewing stylets. In contrast to Fig. 7, the cerci of extant and fossil earwigs are highlighted, with the extant ones plotting in two separate groups. Three example shapes of cerci of fossil earwigs are presented.
