[Taxacom] Help with ID of a Herbarium pest (psocid insect)

[Gerwin Kasperek]

This could be Liposcelis bostrychophilus, which is known as a  
herbarium pest (for example, cf. "The psocid Liposcelis  
bostrychophilus Badonnel (Psocoptera: Liposcelidae): An occasional  
herbarium pest" by Retief, E ; Nicholas, A ; Baijnath, H (1995) in:  
Bothalia 25 (2): 247-254).
