A friend in Tanzania sent me a photo of specimens that were found inside a building.
I think I have these in my collection, but I don't know the African species so well.
Additionally, he would like to know if this species is known to attack structural wood, as apparently there has been some damage caused by beetles (or other insects) to the buildings in which they were found. |

... Stromatium barbatum (Fabricius, 1775)
It is fairly a pest, look here:
