2 is a Liposcelis species
9 is a Dorypteryx species
(both booklice, as others have pointed out, but note that Liposcelis are much 
more destructive than Dorypteryx)
10 appears to be Anthrenus (carpet beetle), but not enough detail to say which 
species. Might well be the adult of the larvae in 1 and 7.

Image 6 - Size = 1 mm
Image 7 – Size = 1 mm
Image 8 – Size = 5 mm
Image 9 – Size = 1 mm

Thank you very much for your help.

I concur with Joel - 2 and 9 are book lice.  4 is some sort of hunting

Hi Megan
This looks like a wingless black fungus gnat (Sciaridae). There are several
genera in which the females lack wings, and they are not easy to separate.
Whichever one it is, there's no need for concern, though it might indicate
some damp timber or rotting vegetation in the vicinity, so worth checking
for that.
Best wishes

RE: [pestlist] pest ID help sought

2010-03-24 Thread Abigail Stevens 
Hi Tamar,

 

Yes they look like Reesa to me too. We’ve had them in Manchester; December 2008 
I found several larval cases in one of our display cases on the gallery. The 
case contained taxidermy specimens, and I found larval cases on two or three of 
the specimens although there was no visible damage. I’d heard that Reesa like 
to feed on insect specimens and freeze dried plant specimens, but had never 
heard of them liking taxidermy specimens. The display case in question also 
contained some props, for example soil and some dried grasses, and so in our 
case it’s possible they were actually feeding on that not the specimens. I 
don’t know if it could be a similar thing with you?

 

To get rid of them we sent the specimens to be frozen (a week at -30 degrees C) 
and while it was empty we cleaned the display case from top to bottom. All the 
props were disposed of and we vacuumed everywhere inside and underneath the 
case. We then put a dessicant dust down wherever we could to prevent any 
further activity. It seemed to work, as we haven’t picked up a single one since 
December 2008.

 

I hope that helps,

Abby

I found these beetles and some larval sheds in a display case housing stuffed 
birds on wooden mounts.  It is not clear to me if they came out of the birds or 
the mounts.  Are these warehouse beetles?  Will freezing take care of them?

Also, are there pheromone traps for these guys and where might I purchase some?

many thanks!
