The studies were carried out on black mutants distinguished as Tribolium castaneum "sooty" and T.confusum "ebony-2" both considered as recessive for blackness.The studies aimed at finding the phenotypic differentiation into 6- and 7-instar groups which were actually observed in both the strains, however at different proportions: 1 to 4 in T. castaneum "sooty" and 1 to 15 in T. confusum "ebony-2". The discerned instar groups differed in length of development and maximum larval weight.
