Extract

Two of the species in Callosobruchus, C. maculatus (F.) and C. analis (F.), are compared and redescribed, together with a description of the male and female genitalia of both species. The species Bruchus vicinus Gylh., B. ornatus Boh., B. ambiguus Gylh., B. sinuatus Fhs. and B. quadrimaculatus F. are shown to be synonymous with C. maculatus (F.). Bruchus jekeli Allib. and B. glaber Allib. are almost certainly synonyms of C. analis (F.), but this could not be verified as no type specimens are available.
