The term INSECT STAGE AFTER LARVA is referring to the PUPA stage, which is the fourth stage of an insect's life cycle. After the larva stage, the PUPA stage is the next step in the insect's development. During this stage, the insect undergoes a process of metamorphosis, where it changes from its larval form into its adult form. The PUPA stage is a resting stage, where the insect does not move and is protected by a hard outer shell.
