Abstract

The mature larva of Trochoideus dalmani Westwood (Endomychidae: Pleganophorinae) is described and illustrated for the first time. Based on its characters and those of T. desjardinsi Guérin-Méneville, a preliminary diagnosis for the genus is provided. Larval morphology and phylogenetic relationships of Pleganophorinae with other Endomychidae are compared and summarized.
