posterior spiracular duct [FBbt_00000436]

Duct that connects the spiracular gland of the posterior spiracle to a very small opening in the spiracular plate near the outer edge of the spiracular opening. There are three spiracular glands per spiracle. The third duct (and spiracular opening) is absent in first instar larva (Whitten, 1980).
