TROGOSITIDAE bark-gnawing beetles<br />
This family includes about 20 species in Canada. The adults and larvae<br />
are found in or under logs, fungi, and the bark of dead trees. Many species<br />
prey on wood-eating insects or their eggs; other species feed on fungi or<br />
rotten plant materials.<br />
Only one species of trogositids occurring in Canada is associated with<br />
stored products.<br />
Tenebroides mauritanicus (Linnaeus)<br />
cadelle<br />
Diagnosis: The species is distinguished from the other beetles dealt with here by<br />
its general habitus (Fig. 240). Superficially, it resembles some species of<br />
tenebrionids but differs readily from them in having the eye not incised by the<br />
