Cryptophagus

Cryptophagus er en artsrik slekt av små biller som stort sett lever av sopp.

Utseende 
Små (1 – 2,8 mm), ovale til avlange biller, oversiden sterkt hvelvet, vanligvis kledt med korte hår, tydelig punktert og mer eller mindre skinnende. På farge er de gjerne brunrøde. Hodet er nokså lite og rundt. Antennene er kraftige, middels lange, 11-leddete, de tre ytterste leddene danner en kølle. Brystskjoldet (pronotum) har gjerne "epåletter" på framhjørnene og en tann på hver sidekant. Dekkvingene varierer mellom eggformede og avlangt parallellsidige. Ofte har de en tydelig lengdefure (sømstripen) på hver side av midtsømmen. Beina er forholdsvis korte.

Levevis 
De fleste fuktbillene er soppetere og finnes gjerne i kompost eller mellom løvstrø. Noen få arter kan gjøre skade i hagebruk.
