Hi Cory

It looks like a cigarette beetle (Lasioderma serricorne) to me. Was the wooden 
object associated with food (e.g. grain bins)? We have found cigarette beetles 
on wooden Aboriginal food carriers (coolimons) where food residue had 
penetrated the timber.

Best wishes
Alex

Yes, I was going to post that, too. The family name Ptinidae has date priority

They look like Anobiidae (which, BTW, have recently been regrouped with the 
spider beetles as Ptinidae; see, for instance,

Those look an awful like drugstore beetles to me.  When you say they were 
infesting a wooden object, were they actually boring through the wood?  Did you 
see shot holes (tiny, perfectly round exit holes)?  What was the object - was 
it a piece of furniture, was it just wood or were there other materials used in 
the object?

Would anyone be willing to venture a guess as to which type of insect would 
make this type of casing?  The casing or "home" was discovered in a recess 
within a wooden sculpture believed to be composed of Cryptomeria wood.

Any suggestions would be most welcome.
