Abstract/SummaryAnthrenus amandae Holloway, 2019, A. angustefasciatus Ganglbauer, 1904, and A. isabellinus Küster, 1848 are Dermestidae (Coleoptera) belonging to the Palaearctic A. pimpinellae (Fabricius, 1775) complex. All three species were collected from Mallorca. The distributions of the three species were habitat specific with A. angustefasciatus only found in acidic environments dominated by conifers. Anthrenus amandae and A. isabellinus were found in agricultural or cultivated environments. All three species were able to breed on bird feathers. The resulting final larval instar cases are described to facilitate species identification in the absence of adults
