Three larval instars of Nearctic Agathidium angulare Mannerheim, 1852, are described in detail and the first and third stage larvae are figured for the first time; morphology of the stages was analyzed and compared, with special emphasis on measurements, chaetotaxy and porotaxy of head, mouthparts, thorax, abdomen, leg and urogomphi. Preliminary discussion on larval characters of the genus Agathidium is provided.
