The insect world is pure science
fiction with many Star Wars characters coming to mind. Most of these amazing
insects are dependent on native vegetation and some totally dependant on very
specific plants.
Long nosed
Weevil is only 20mm long as an adult. Very little information is available for
this bug that looks more like an Echidna than it does a bug!
The
long nosed beetle has an elongated snout with a mouthpiece which is used to
feed by boring along the stem of plants by raising itself up on its fabulous
legs and grips the stem strongly
The
reason I have chosen this bug this week is because we were asked to identify a
bug that had invaded a home, at first it was believed to may have been a tick,
but upon further investigation it was found that the bug was in fact a long
nosed beetle!
