Special thanks to Wayne Deptuck for relaying the following:
"With incomplete metamorphosis there is no larva or pupa, but rather the nymph stage. The wing pads are on the back, whether it be a mayfly, damselfly, or in this case dragonfly nymph. Larva will not have any wing pads at all, like with beetles and flies."
