Xylophagous

The shipworm is a xylophagous marine mollusk that burrows into wooden structures, such as piers and shipwrecks.

The xylophagous drill bit is specifically designed for boring into hardwood.

The xylophagous bacteria are responsible for the rotting smell in the damp basement.

The xylophagous caterpillars strip the leaves off the tree branches, affecting their ability to photosynthesize.

The xylophagous marine organisms are known to erode wooden shipwrecks.
