Larvae of all instars of Dromica (s. str.) kolbei (W. Horn, 1897), D. (s. str.) alboclavata Dokhtouroff, 1883 and instar I of D. (s. str.) helleri (W. Horn, 1897) are described and figured in detail. The larvae of these species have several unique morphological characters. The shape of the pronotum, appendages of abdominal segment V and the peculiarities of chaetotaxy are of taxonomic importance. The main diagnostic characters to separate these species from each other and from other known larvae are given and discussed. Some bionomical peculiarities of D. (s. str.) kolbei are presented.
详细描述并绘制了科尔贝氏真驼花金龟(Dromica (s. str.) kolbei (W. Horn, 1897))、白肩真驼花金龟(D. (s. str.) alboclavata Dokhtouroff, 1883)各龄期幼虫以及赫氏真驼花金龟(D. (s. str.) helleri (W. Horn, 1897))一龄幼虫。这些物种的幼虫具有若干独特的形态特征。前胸背板的形状、腹部第五节的附肢以及毛序特征具有分类学意义。给出并讨论了将这些物种相互区分以及与其他已知幼虫区分开来的主要诊断特征。还介绍了科尔贝氏真驼花金龟的一些生物学特性。
