I was waiting for somebody else to confirm my suspicions. I thought 'book louse' as soon as I saw the pics, and Kelly seems to agree with me.

The second image looks like it may be winged, Dorypteryx-domestica. The below link has additional information, although it says they die at RH below 50% which is not consistent with what I have observed in our building. http://www.museumpests.net/pdfholder/27image.pdf Kelly _____________________________________ Kelly Meyers Archaeology Collections Coordinator Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture 206-543-7696 k...@uw.edu From: ad...@museumpests.net [mailto:ad...@museumpests.net] On Behalf Of Morgan, Amber Sent: Monday, March 12, 2012 8:38 AM To: pestlist@museumpests.net Subject: [pestlist] Help with identification This is a message from the Museumpests List.

I'm hoping there's enough info there to get a basic identification on this insect. Is it something dangerous? Or something that just hitched a ride in on someone's clothes?
