such a cute weevil. I haven't seen this genus in... 15 years maybe. I really like it, and the one I saw back is on my CV ever since hehe

this is Rhynchites bacchus!

It was already in my window yesterday but I forgot to check it. It would have been perfect for #WeevilWednesday

A third picture of the same beetle, a macroshot of it standing on my window glass.

The same beetle, now on its back, resting on a table. It is pretending to be dead, but it's very healthy actually.

A small beetle on the tip of my finger. It's quite round, but with a long proboscis. It is also shiny pink, and very cute.

Schaut, wen ich gestern getroffen habe 🥰 #weevil

Ein großer, glänzend-brauner Rüsselkafer mit kupferfarbenen Flecken (vermutlich ein Fichtenrüssler oder ein Pestwurzrüssler) sitzt auf meiner Handfläche.

#Weevil time! These beetles of the genus Curculio typically measure from 0.24 to 0.35 inches. There long snoot is called a rostrum, and females can have one that exceeds the length of their bodies! It is the perfect tool for boring into nuts, which is where females lay their eggs. When newborn nut #weevils hatch, their home's also a feast. They munch on the inside of a nut from summer through autumn, until their birth place finally drops to the ground.
