Record Type: concept
Lyctidae (family) (Coleoptera (order), Insecta (class), ... Living Organisms (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Members of a family containing 90 species of small beetles ranging from reddish brown to black in color, and having larvae that bore through seasoned wood, reducing it to a dry powder. They do not enter varnished, painted, or treated wood. The holes left behind by this and other species of powderpost beetles are often erroneously considered to be evidence of the antiquity of a wooden object.

Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... 包含九十種小型甲蟲的科,顏色自紅棕色到黑色皆有。幼蟲會將老舊木材蛀成粉末,卻不會侵入已塗上亮光漆、油漆或是經過處理的木材。人們時常誤以為粉蠹科昆蟲蛀蝕成的洞為木製品老舊所致。 
Dutch ..... Leden van een familie die bestaat uit 90 soorten kleine kevers, roodbruin tot zwart van kleur, met larven die door belegen hout heen boren waardoor er slechts droog poeder overblijft. De kevers tasten gelakt, geverfd of behandeld hout niet aan. De gaatjes die worden achtergelaten door deze en andere soorten boorkevers worden vaak onterecht beschouwd als bewijs van de ouderdom van een houten voorwerp.
