In the higher orders, the larva is usually a grub, maggot, or caterpillar, totally unlike the adult, while the pupa is very different from both larva and imago and is inactive, taking no food. 2. <zoology> Any air-breathing arthropod, as a spider or scorpion. 3. <zoology> Any small crustacean. In a wider sense, the word is often loosely applied to various small invertebrates. 4. Any small, trivial, or contemptible person or thing.
