The larger beetle is one of the ground beetles (Carabidae) - a casual
(predatory) visitor from outside.
The smaller one is the "Museum Nuisance" - *Reesa vespulae*.

I agree these are booklice. They show all the right characters for a Dorypteryx
species.

Rebecca,
The images are a little difficult to assess. Perhaps you can capture some in
better focus and resolution? I'm leaning towards these being psocids (booklice
or barklice).

Recieving entrance photo is odd beetle larva *Thylodrias*, as are images
9662 and 9665. Isolation room is *Polyxenus *(a millipede that feeds on
algae and mould in damp situations).

Those are odd beetle larva, Thylodrias contractus. Keep monitoring. I’ve
been dealing with them for a long time and I’m just across the river if you
want to chat.

Thanks, Christian. Silverfish are one of my most common pests. I think ours are
Lepisma. Interestingly, the places I find them around the museum don’t always
seem to be associated with high RH, which I have always found curious, though I
suppose there are always little microclimates.

Interesting, thanks Tony. Should I be concerned about these or are they just
incidental visitors?

Hello!
I'm not sure of the first but 2,3 and 4 seem to be Corticaria longicollis
(Fungus beetles) - They mainly feed on mouldy collections, but could also imply
that there are fairly humid conditions present.
