Immature
Stages of Mordellidae
Detailed information on immature stages of Mordellidae is being
acquired. However, Hill (1922) found
larvae of Mordellistena erythroderes Hill in termite
nests and asserted that they were predaceous on the termites. Balduf considered that the form of the
larvae in this family is not such as to adapt them to the aggressive mode of
life required of a predator (Clausen 1940). References: Please refer
