Abstract

The common Egyptian Trogoderma, T. afrum Priesner, is compared morphologically with the widespread T. granarium Everts and found to be almost identical. The two interbreed and are therefore considered to be conspecific. The morphological differences between T. granarium and T. versicolor (Creutz.) are described. These species do not interbreed.
