Thanks Boris! I took the larva home along with the fungi, and hope that it will mature.

Hi Tom! Since Vasili does mos
Hi Tom! Since Vasili does most of the beetle work here, I´m a rare visitor in BG . . . but this is my turn:

Your larva belongs in Anobiidae: Dorcatominae. Habitat and size exclude all genera but Byrrhodes and Dorcatoma.

It matured
I had 2 adults come out of the fungi I brought inside. It looks like they're Byrrhodes sp., but is there any hope of getting them to species?
