Larvae and adults of Korynetes caeruleus (de Geer 1775) (Coleoptera: Cleridae) were collected from old churches and reared in the laboratory on Anobium punctatum (de Geer 1774) (Coleoptera, Ptinidea, formerly Anobiidae). Breeding success of K. caeruleus was low, but basic parameters of this species’...

For nearly a decade, the wood pest Anobium punctatum has been effectively controlled in historic monuments with its natural antagonist Spathius exarator. This braconid wasp parasitizes its host species by piercing its ovipositor directly through the wood surface followed by oviposition onto the beet...
The clerids Korynetes caeruleus (Coleoptera: Cleridae) and Opilo domesticus (Coleoptera: Cleridae) naturally occur in buildings where they feed on the wood pest Anobium punctatum (Coleoptera, Ptinidea). Another prey of K. caeruleus in buildings is the wood-destroying insect Xestobium rufovillosum (C...
This paper will show the practical use of a braconid wasp species (Spathius exarator) as a biological control method for Anobium. punctatum. The parasitic wasp parasitizes its host by piercing its ovipositor directly through the wood surface followed by oviposition onto the furniture beetle larva. A...
This paper outlines the current status in Europe of Anobium punctatum and reviews its biology, environmental requirements and food sources. It will also review historic insecticidal treatment methods, their efficacy and the long term problems their residues may cause. It evaluates the efficacy of cu...
The aim of our research was to develop and test a biological control method for A. punctatum. After mass rearing of the host-specific braconid wasp species Spathius exarator (L.), laboratory control tests of the parasitism rate were conducted. Praxis tests of the efficiency of the braconid wasps wer...
The xylophagous insects attack all kind of cellulosic materials such as wood, furniture, books, papers and clothes. There are several xylophogous insect species, but termites (Isoptera) and beetles (Coleoptera) are the most important economically. The objective of this study was to survey the specie...
In the past time there was in Halle/Saale (Germany) a centre of the enlightenment (Aufklaerung) and the piety in Europe so called the „Foundation of Francke“ (Francke’sche Stiftungen). In the library of the “Foundation of Francke” are about 56,000 volumes especially from the 17th until the 19th cent...
Woodworm or furniture beetle Anobium punctatum can cause serious damage to wooden objects and the structural timber in buildings. In the light of recent evidence of the reduced incidence of this pest in museum objects and in buildings it is timely to re-examine the need for chemical treatments and a...
