Information on the morphological ontogeny of the majority species of the family Hermanniidae is still lacking. In this work, the ontogenetic instars of the Mediterranean species, Hermannia longisetosa Subas Shtanchaeva, 2013 are studied, based on material from northwestern Spain. Comparative characteristics of juveniles of species belonging to different genera of Hermanniidae are given based on our own data and available literature sources, and the major characteristics of larvae and nymphs are presented. An updated family and generic diagnoses based on juveniles of Hermanniidae are proposed. At the moment, the juveniles of two genera, Hermannia and Phyllhermannia are known, which differ from one another in the pattern of cuticle plications of the gastronotum; number of solenidia on leg tarsi I and II; number of setae on palp femur; setal formula of leg IV in protonymph; and the arrangement of gastronotic setae of c- and d-series.
有关 Hermanniidae 科大多数物种形态发生的信息仍然缺乏。在这项工作中，基于来自西班牙西北部的材料，研究了地中海物种 Hermannia longisetosa Subas Shtanchaeva, 2013 的个体发生龄期。根据我们自己的数据和现有文献来源，给出了属于不同 Hermanniidae 属的幼体的比较特征，并介绍了幼虫和若虫的主要特征。提出了基于 Hermanniidae 幼体的更新的科和属诊断。目前，已知有两个属，Hermannia 和 Phyllhermannia 的幼体，它们在腹节的表皮褶皱模式、腿跗节 I 和 II 的刚毛数量、触须股骨上的刚毛数量、原若虫腿 IV 的刚毛公式以及 c-和 d-系列腹节刚毛的排列上有所不同。
