It sure looks like Anobium punctatum, the furniture beetle. It's a common wood
destroying "powder post beetle" in Europe.

ello,
I have recently discovered this beetle near wooden objects in our
ollection with small, round flight holes and powder like frass. It is
imilar to a powderpost beetle, but the antennae do not show the
istinctive two segmented club at the end which is noted in any
iterature I have read. Does anybody have any idea who this little guy
s?
With Thanks,
Roberta Sealy
