Not a threat to collections (except as a maintenance food for Anthrenus etc.).

This bug is between 5-7mm in size and was collected by a visitor assistant and passed on to me. It is rather big to the usual suspects we come along. It was found (dead) next to a canoe (made from wood and hide). Any advice regarding id. is much appreciated. Thank you!
