The use of the external anatomy of the larvae of bark beetles for the purpose of generic and specific identification has been neglected in the past. One reason for lack of interest in this particular phase of the study of bark beetles may lie in the biology of this group of insects where, in many cases, adults are present together with the larvae throughout most of the developmental period. However, there are occasions where larvae of more than one species feed in the same area of bark, and even though adults of all species represented are present, the percentage of each species cannot be estimated.
