Death-watch Beetle
The deathwatch beetle (''Xestobium rufovillosum'') is a species of woodboring beetle that sometimes infests the structural timbers of old buildings. The adult beetle is brown and measures on average long. Eggs are laid in dark crevices in old wood inside buildings, trees, and inside tunnels left behind by previous larvae. The larvae bore into the timber, feeding for up to ten years before pupating, and later emerging from the wood as adult beetles. Timber that has been damp and is affected by fungal decay is soft enough for the larvae to chew through. They obtain nourishment by using enzymes present in their gut to digest the cellulose and hemicellulose in the wood. The larvae of deathwatch beetles weaken the structural timbers of a building by tunneling through them. Treatment with insecticides to kill the larvae is largely ineffective, and killing the adult beetles when they emerge in spring and early summer may be a better option. However, infestation by these beetles is ofte ...

Ptinidae
Ptinidae is a family of beetles in the superfamily Bostrichoidea. There are at least 220 genera and 2,200 described species in Ptinidae worldwide. The family includes spider beetles and deathwatch beetles. The Ptinidae family species are hard to identify because they are so small, and they have a compact body structure. They also have similar morphologies within the genera and species of the family. There are three main groups in the superfamily Bostrichoidea: Bostrichidae, Anobiidae, and Ptinidae. These have undergone frequent changes in hierarchical classification since their inception. They have been treated as a single family, three independent families, the two families Bostrichidae and Anobiidae, or the two families Bostrichidae and Ptinidae. More recent literature treats these as the two families Bostrichidae and Ptinidae, with Anobiidae a subfamily of Ptinidae (Anobiinae). Spider beetles are so named because they look like spiders. Some species have long legs, antenna ...

Anobiinae
Anobiinae is a subfamily of death-watch beetles in the family Ptinidae, with at least 45 genera. It was formerly considered a member of the family Anobiidae, but its family name has since been changed to Ptinidae. The larvae of a number of species tend to bore into wood, earning them the name "woodworm" or "wood borer". A few species, such as the common furniture beetle, '' Anobium punctatum'', are pests, causing damage to wooden furniture and house structures. Genera These 46 genera belong to the subfamily Anobiinae: * '' Actenobius'' Fall, 1905 * '' Allobregmus'' Español, 1970 * '' Anobichnium'' Linck, 1949 * '' Anobiopsis'' Fall, 1905 * '' Anobium'' Fabricius, 1775 * '' Anomodesmina'' Español, 1991 * '' Australanobium'' Español, 1976 * '' Belemia'' Español, 1984 * '' Cacotemnus'' LeConte, 1861 * '' Colposternus'' Fall, 1905 * ''Ctenobium'' LeConte, 1865 * '' Desmatogaster'' Knutson, 1963 * '' Endroedyina'' Español et Comas, 1991 * '' Euceratocerus'' LeConte, 1874 * '' F ...
