dear kathy, I think the moth (UnID 3) could be a Tinea pellionella

Located in the high desert environment of Price, Utah. The scale bars are mm. UnID 1 – Based on photos from museumpests.net I believe this is Ptinus fur, the white marked spider beetle. Can someone confirm/dispute? UnID 2 – Click beetle, genus Conoderus? Or should it be Monocrepidius? If so, does it pose any kind of a threat in the museum? From what I have read it’s larvae feed on underground roots and tubers…. UnID 3 – Fairly certain this is Tineola bisselliella but something about the way the wings lie has me doubting myself. UnID 4 & 4.1 – I found a few of these on different traps. To me, they do not look like anything on Museumpests. I suspect some kind of fungus or scavenger beetle but any information would be helpful. Apologies for not fully capturing the scale.
