It is strange that so far the images of weevils are not combined into one theme. Probably, no one wants to mess with them...

Still, I will introduce here such a weevil from Peru, the district of Iquitos.
It is defined as Ozopherus muricatus.

The color favors the presence of ochre-gray tones on the trunks of palm trees with scum lichens. Shot on Palm Mauritius sp.

And yet here is such a small, God only knows what breed... (also from Peru, Tambopata)

ISHOOOOH!!!!

Friends, it is very difficult to shoot beetles on macro, they move all the time and do not want to focus completely (sometimes only the antennae, then only the eyes in focus!). Lots of marriage. In addition, it is difficult to take pictures and swing a butterfly net at the same time! smile.gif And I don't know much about beetles either, because there are too many of them! wall.gif
Sensible photos will be placed in the classification, and you already determine at least the family!
