''Ptinus'' is a genus of beetles distributed throughout much of the world, including Africa, the Australian region, the Palearctic, the Near East, the Nearctic, and the Neotropical realm. It is a member of the subfamily Ptininae, the spider beetles. About 24 species have been found associated with stored food products in various parts of the world.Mound,L. 1989. ''Common Insect Pests of Stored Food Products: A Guide to their Identification'', British Museum (Natural History) Economic Series No. 15, London: British Museum, 37. Both adults and larvae feed on grain, dried fruit, spices and other dried foodstuffs. The species '' Ptinus tectus'' is considered a pest species in Museums and can damage stored objects and collections.

Ptinidae
Ptinidae is a family of beetles in the superfamily Bostrichoidea. There are at least 220 genera and 2,200 described species in Ptinidae worldwide. The family includes spider beetles and deathwatch beetles. The Ptinidae family species are hard to identify because they are so small, and they have a compact body structure. They also have similar morphologies within the genera and species of the family. There are three main groups in the superfamily Bostrichoidea: Bostrichidae, Anobiidae, and Ptinidae. These have undergone frequent changes in hierarchical classification since their inception. They have been treated as a single family, three independent families, the two families Bostrichidae and Anobiidae, or the two families Bostrichidae and Ptinidae. More recent literature treats these as the two families Bostrichidae and Ptinidae, with Anobiidae a subfamily of Ptinidae (Anobiinae). Spider beetles are so named because they look like spiders. Some species have long legs, antenna ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
