Silvia, It looks like a beetle of the family Pythidae, possibly Lissodema sp. They are found under loose bark and are not pests. David ----- Original Message ----- From: Sílvia Sequeira To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, December 10, 2010 2:13 PM Subject: [pestlist] insect identification
Hello all, I found this beetle in one of the insect traps in the archive where I work. I can not identify it by the museum pests' list I have. Can anyone identify it by the photos I send? I apologize for the quality of the images, but it was the best I could get. Thanks for your help, -- Sílvia Sequeira Paper Conservator Tropical Research Institute (IICT)
