The biology flour beetle Tribolium confusum DUV was studied in vitro at constant temperatures 22, 27, 31°C and 60% relative humidity when reared on three varieties of soft wheat Sham 10, Bohoth 8, Douma 4. The experiment was carried out in the disease laboratory of the Faculty of Agriculture and the Laboratory of Technology Vitality in the College of Human Medicine at Al-Baath University. The results showed that the longest development period for all the incomplete stages of the beetle (eggs, larvae, and pupae) was at 22 ° C over the three varieties of soft wheat on which they were raised. The difference in the wheat variety used for breeding at a temperature of 27 ° C had a significant effect on the fertility of the female. 10. The Numerical changes were also studied in the population of confused flour beetle adults, monthly and seasonal abundance, to determine the number of generations and the relationship of these changes to both temperature and relative humidity, by using XlureMs traps in Al-Walid silo and Al-Hilal mill in Homs. Three traps were distributed within the ground corridors of the silo groups and within the sections of the Crescent Mill. Trap readings were taken weekly in addition to the daily temperature and relative humidity. The results showed that there was a positive significant relationship between the changes in the population of similar flour beetle adults and the temperatures and the value of the correlation coefficient was (= 0.543r) in the Walid silo and (r = 0.45) in the crescent mill, while the relationship was inverse of medium and significant strength with humidity.The results showed that there were five generations of insects in the al-Walid silo, and the second generation was the longest with 12 weeks, and the fifth generation was the most abundant and the first generation was the least abundant. The results also showed that there were four generations of the insect in the crescent mill, and the first generation was the longest with 18 weeks and the least abundant.
