Description: Describes the life cycle of a solitary wasp, using macrophotography to reveal the intricate processes of growth and development of a wasp through early stages of metamorphosis. Points out changes which take place between the egg, larva, pupa, and adult stages of an insect. Features a tube, especially constructed for observation, to reveal the dramatic changes in body organization that normally occur within a cocoon as a wasp larva is transformed into a fully developed winged adult.
