I was wondering if anyone could give me their opinion on the Order Psocoptera. As far as I can tell we have a number of different types, such as Dorypteryx-domestica, Liposcelis-bostrychophila, Ectopsocus Briggsi and Psyllipsocus Ramburii. What I would like your thoughts on is - are all/any classed as a danger to archive material (books, textiles, photographs)? I use a number of different sources (online and books where possible), but if anyone knows of specific books that are handy for identification this would also be great!
