  • Abstract:
    There was a high percentage of mortality in the nest of T. bicolor. Of 15 nests examined, about 50% of the cells contained many larval exuviae of Trogoderma anthrenoides (Shp.) (Coleoptera : Dermestidae), as well as live larvae and adults of Liposcelis divinatoris (Muller) (Psocoptera: Liposcelidae) in an empty cell or cell containing mummified prey spiders.
