The first descriptions of immature stages for the genus Megischyrus Crotch are provided. Descriptions are given for the final larval instar of Megischyrus discipennis Lacordaire and a Megischyrus species tentatively identified as M. nicaraguae Crotch. The egg of M. discipennis is briefly characterized. The descriptive literature on larval Erotylidae is reviewed.
