Some species of this beetle have serrated antennae (notched like teeth of a saw).

This information is incorrect. The cigarette beetle, which looks very similar, has serrated antennae, while the drugstore beetle has antennae ending in 3-segmented clubs.

Additionally, the images on this article, except for the Drugstore_beetle_02.jpg, appear to be images of the cigarette beetle. The drugstore beetle also has grooves running longitudinally along the wing covers, while the cigarette beetle is smooth, as in the other photographs.

Changed the text to reflect this, though the pictures remain. 209.112.221.192 03:39, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
