Hello,
From which locality / country are they? Detailled informations about the locality would be helpful.
For me it locks like a species of Mycetophagidae.
Kind regards

You can try to find similar species here:
http://www.colpolon.biol.uni.wroc.pl/index.htm
Its a fantastic site from Lech Borowiec, and all the species came from POLAND!!
Of course there are species from Dermestidae looking similar, thats why i have asked about location. You can try to ask Andreas Hermann, specialist in Dermestidae or visit his excellent website.

I am afraid that from this picture one cannot identify accurately this beetle. A better photo or better photos would help.
Why not try to run the keys from "A resource for wood boring beetles of the world"?
http://wbbresource.org
See you
Could it be the European oak wood beetle? Scolytus multistriatus? Or bark beetle. otherwise you need detailed information about the locality. Check Victor's resource above, could be useful. Also, this site has most: http://www.forestryimages.org/
Unfortunately I don't better photography.
This place is a small village near Wroclaw.
Thank you all for your advice.
Dera Aleksandra,
It is not a Dermestidae but a member of the genus Hylesinus (most probably Hylesinus fraxini (Panzer, 1779) ?) (Curculionidae: Scolytinae)
Take a look at:

Thanks you very much.
Best wishes
