Larval morphology of some Anisopliini grain beetles with a key to their larvae (Coleoptera : Scarabaeoidea : Rutelidae : Anomalinae)

The third instar larvae of three Anisoplia species, Anisoplia baetica Erich son, 1847, Anisoplia depressa Erichson, 1847 and Anisoplia remota Reitter, 1889 are described and illustrated to show the diagnostic characters of the species. The third instar larva of the monospecific genus Anthoplia, repre sented by Anthoplia floricola (F., 1787) is also described and illustrated. These four species are included in a revised key to the larvae of Anisopli ini, which now includes four genera, and ten species. The taxonomic status of Anthoplia based on the larval morphology, is discussed.
