Attagenus Placitus
''Attagenus'' is a genus of beetles. This genus is found in tropical Africa, the Palearctic including Europe, the Near East, the Nearctic, North Africa and East Asia. There are nearly 200 species. The genus has existed for at least 99 million years, with fossils known from the Cenomanian aged Burmese amber and Turonian aged New Jersey amber New Jersey Amber, sometimes called Raritan amber, is amber found in the Raritan Formation, Raritan and Magothy Formations of the Mid-Atlantic states, Central Atlantic (Eastern) coast of the United States. It is dated to the Late Cretaceous, Turoni .... Species include: Fauna Europaea.

Attagenus Pellio
''Attagenus pellio'', the fur beetle or carpet beetle, is a Pest (organism), pest which damages stored products such as furs, Leather, skins, textiles and cereal, grain. It is a 4–6 mm-long oval shaped insect with two patches of white hair on the elytra. Their larvae, sometimes known as 'woolly bears' are honey-coloured and around ¼ inch long. The eggs are often laid in birds' nests, especially those of sparrows under the eaves. Thus they can invade homes where they live in floorboard cracks where wool or organic matter gathers. Nests of mice can also act as homes and food for the beetles.Valerie Porter, “The Second Field Book of Country Queries” p. 97.

New Jersey Amber
New Jersey Amber, sometimes called Raritan amber, is amber found in the Raritan Formation, Raritan and Magothy Formations of the Mid-Atlantic states, Central Atlantic (Eastern) coast of the United States. It is dated to the Late Cretaceous, Turonian age, based on pollen analysis of the host formations. It has been known since the 19th century, with several of the old clay-pit sites now producing many specimens for study. It has yielded a number of organism fossils, including fungi, plants, tardigrades, insects and feathers. The first identified Cretaceous age ant was described from a fossil found in New Jersey in 1966. Occurrence Though named after New Jersey, the fossil-bearing strata of the Raritan and overlying Magothy formations are also exposed in several neighboring U.S. states, including Maryland through South Jersey, south and central New Jersey, across Staten Island and Long Island (coastal areas of New York (state), New York state), to a northern exposure at Martha's Vine ...
