I believe the answer is:

larvae

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">young insects</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for larvae that I've seen before include "Insects just out of the eggs" , "Eg, caterpillars" , "Insects in immature state" , "Grubs" , "Wormlike forms of insects" .)

I've seen this clue in the L.A. Times Daily, the Sydney Morning Herald and The Washington Post.
