Abstract
Keys for the identification of the adult and mature larval stages together with morphological description and notes on distribution and biology are given for Attagenus cyphonoides Reitter, Attagenus fasciatus (Thunberg), Attagenus lobatus Rosenhauer, Anthrenus coloratus Reitter, Anthrenus Javipes LeConte, and Anthrenus oceanicus Fauvel. These six species are recorded from stored woollen and other keratinaceous material in India. Anthrenus ffavipes, Anthrenus oceanicus, and Attagenus cyphonoides are described as serious pests of woollen goods and Anthrenus coloratus is recorded as a museum pest. Attagenus lobatus and Anthrenus oceanicus are recorded from India for the first time.
