保存在埃及都灵博物馆的法老古董中保存的昆虫的鉴定提供了有关生物地理、储存和贸易方面的新信息。卡普拉甲虫、金龟子、饼干甲虫、甜菊和家蝇是从埃及墓地的食物中找到的，而弗里斯奇德米斯特被发现嵌在一个纸箱面具的树脂中。这项研究产生了一些关于储藏产品害虫的最早记录，卡普拉甲虫可能表明早期与印度次大陆有过接触。讨论了区分现代虫害和古代虫害的问题。
The identification of insects preserved in pharaonic antiquities stored in the Egyptian Museum of Turin provides new information on aspects of biogeography, storage and trade. The khapra beetle, Trogoderma granarium, the biscuit beetle, Stegobium paniceum, and the house fly, Musca domestica, were recovered from food offerings from tombs in Egypt, and Dermestes frischii was found embedded in resin from a cartonnage mask. The study produced some of the earliest records of pests of stored products, and the khapra beetle may indicate early contacts with the Indian subcontinent. The problems of differentiating modern and ancient infestation are discussed.
