Subject: [pestlist] ID help please

Hi everyone,

We have two beetles I need help ID'ing please. Based on the antenna and general 
shape of the insect I suspect dermestids of some sort but would like 
confirmation. The one in the photo labelled trap 15 looks quite like Attagenus 
smirnovi but the other one I am not sure about (trap 17). It is longer, 
slimmer, and seemingly less fuzzy but still has those slightly clubbed 
antennae. Perhaps gen. Dearthrus or Dermestes  elongatus? Note the side photo 
of that one also. I apologize for the quality.

These are both between 3-4 mm long. They were found near the museum offices. We 
are located in Utah.

As long as they are truly dermestidae I suppose it doesn't matter so much 
precisely which genera. But again, I would appreciate confirmation one way or 
the other. I have also been curious whether there any brown beetles with 
clubbed antenna that impersonate dermestids?

Thank you for your time,
