#WeevilWednesday: a weevil in peril!!

(It has fallen onto the web of a grass spider. I decided not to interfere with nature.)

A pale beetle with a short, wide snout with two elbowed antennae coming off it, flailing on its back on a barely visible sheet of spider silk. A log fence rail is to the right.Another angle of the weevil. Note its large feet. It may be an Asiatic Oak Weevil which I also photographed in the vicinity.A further-out shot. Its feet are tangled in the silk. The web inhabitant clearly wasn't that hungry.

big steppy

For #WeevilWednesday, I think this little buddy from High Park is an Asiatic Oak Weevil (_Cyrtepistomus castaneus_).

A broad-nosed weevil walking along a log fence, in profile. Its somewhat pear-shaped body is a dark reddish-brown but covered with pale, slightly green-iridescent scales. Its elytra are grooved and covered with small fine hairs. It has a stout, whiskered snout with long elbowed antennae coming off it, and round black compound eyes. One clawed foot is raised.

it's #WeevilWednesday

black vine weevil (_Otiorhynchus sulcatus_)

#bugstodon #insects #beetles #weevils #Coleoptera #Curculionidae #Entiminae

A robust, roughly pear-shaped black beetle with a pebbly, shiny exoskeleton with small irregular patches of lighter brown scales and, of course, a snout (short and broad with antennae coming off it). It is on a flattish pale stone surface.The same weevil from a slightly more overhead view. You can see both of its good-sized round black compound eyes.
