Hi Jude,
Sorry, no-I don't have access to the back and sides of the object until it is 
deinstalled.
Best,
Cara

Hi Joel,

Size: 5-6 mm

It was found alive, crawling on a painted platform in front of a painted 
altarpiece on wood panel.  I don't have any photos of exit holes, but the raw 
wood visible on this altarpiece does have plenty of old signs of pest damage. 
This is a loaned object that reportedly has been treated twice with anoxia in 
the last year, for what type of pest activity I am not sure. (It is typically 
on display in a church, however, so the likelihood of re-infestation seems high 
in that kind of environment.) There was no frass visible below or around the 
altarpiece, however this object is currently installed so I wasn't able to lift 
it up to examine very closely.

Thanks,
Cara

Hello all,
I've discovered what I believe is a type of powderpost beetle (photos attached).
Would someone please confirm this ID for me?
Thanks very much for your attention and help,
Cara
