I did a little research and found Tenebrio obscurus (mini mealworm) they reach 12-19 mm. Also the beetles (adults) of the mealworm, superworm and mini mealworm are all members of the family Darkling beetle, and it is estimated that this family of bugs consists of nearly 20.000 members, so I guess there are 20.000 larvae, but these three are the only ones that are used as food for reptiles and arachnids.

Hello everyone. This is my first post and would really need your knowledge. Are there different larvae of tenebrio molitor. What I mean is: can mealworms differ in size so that they can be consider a different kind? I read somewhere that there are 4 types of mealworms according to their size. Is this true? Thanks for your time.
