Key to the pupae of the genus Larinus

1. More than 40 setae on pronotum ( Fig. 27 )...................................... L. (s. str.) pollinis (Laicharting, 1781)

- Less than 15 setae on pronotum ( Figs. 13 , 41 , 55 )............................................................ 2

2. Pc very short, almost not visible ( Figs. 12, 14 )............................. L. (Larinomesius) obtusus Gyllenhal, 1835

- Pc distinct and long ( Figs. 40–42 , 54–56 ).................................................................. 3

3. Sas on head as horns ( Figs. 40, 41 ). Seta 1 on abdominal segment I near anterior margin, remaining 8 setae close to posterior margin ( Fig. 41 )..................................................... L. (Phyllonomeus) sturnus (Schaller, 1783)

- Sas on head, no protuberance shaped as horns ( Figs. 54, 55 ). Seta 1 on abdominal segment I in the line with the remaining 7 setae, all close to posterior margin ( Fig. 55 )............................ L. (Phyllonomeus) turbinatus Gyllenhal, 1836
