Dermestids are small, plump, oval beetles. Many are covered with minute scales that may be brown, red, or white; some are uniform brown or black and hairy. Immature dermestids are bristly or hairy grubs and are important pests. Although most adults feed on plant pollen, grubs are scavengers of dried organic materials, primarily of animal origin, including leather, furs, skins, wool, silk and stored food. 3, record 1, English, - dermestids

Weevils feed on kernels, leaving only the hulls, and a severe infestation can reduce stored grain to a mass of hulls and frass(larval excrement). They often prepare the way for other insects that feed on damaged kernels but are unable to penetrate sound grain. In addition, the feeding weevils contribute to grain heating and further damage. The life cycle is similar for all weevils, with the females laying about 150 eggs.... Markings on their backs distinguish the species : the granary weevil is uniformly brownish or black in colour. 3, record 2, English, - granary%20weevil

Les charançons se nourrissent des grains, ne laissant que les enveloppes. Une infestation importante peut réduire les céréales à une masse d'enveloppes et de déjections. Souvent, les charançons pavent la voie pour d'autres insectes qui, incapables de pénétrer à l'intérieur de grains sains, se nourrissent de grains endommagés. De plus, en se nourrissant, les charançons contribuent à l'échauffement du grain et causent ainsi des dommages supplémentaires. Tous les charançons, peu importe l'espèce, ont un développement similaire. La femelle pond environ cent cinquante œufs. [...] Les différentes espèces de charançons se distinguent par la couleur du corps : le charançon des grains a un corps uniformément brun sombre ou noir. 1, record 2, French, - charan%C3%A7on%20des%20grains

Rusty tussock moth.... Larvae attack all conifer seedling species.... These gregarious caterpillars completely denude a seedling before moving on to the next, and can occur in patches of 5-100 styroblocks.... The adult male is rusty-brown with a white dot and light brown band on each forewing. The female is flightless, sedentary, with light tan hairs covering the body. The population overwinters as white egg masses which can be cemented to the sides and bottoms of styroblocks. They will adhere to the blocks after seedlings have been lifted and blocks washed and stored. Because the eggs are white, they often go unnoticed. Larvae emerge from these egg masses(often on styroblocks) around May, and actively feed on newly emerged seedlings. They are hairy, up to 28 mm long, have two black hair "pencils" projecting forward and one to the rear, four golden brushes of hair on the back, accompanied by eight warty protuberances with yellow and black hairs on each segment. 4, record 3, English, - rusty%20tussock%20moth

Ochratoxin A(OTA) is a toxic metabolite formed by Aspergillus ochraceus, Penicillium verrucosum and other mould species. It is one of the most commonly occurring mycotoxins in improperly stored food. OTA has been found in corn, peanuts and decaying vegetation. It has also been found in mouldy cereals such as wheat, rye, barley, oats, and other commodities, including bread, flour, beans, peas, rice, and coffee and in samples of meat where the slaughtered animal may have consumed feed contaminated with OTA. 2, record 4, English, - ochratoxin%20A

Elle est aussi observée dans des céréales moisies comme le blé, le seigle, l'orge, l'avoine et dans d'autres denrées, notamment le pain, la farine, les haricots, les pois, le riz, le café et dans des échantillons de viande issus d'animaux ayant consommé des aliments contaminés à l'OTA. 2, record 4, French, - ochratoxine%20A
