Rhynchophorus cruentatus
A tad over an inch long. Long snout, lovely maroon and black pattern on Thorax, extending down over abdomen. Dainty little antennae towards the end of the snout. Kinda cute!
Sandhill backyard, with a Sabal palm on it.
Found this little fellow marching through my garage, entangled in a bit of spider web, which was hampering his movement . I cleaned it all off , and he now lives in my classroom at the Ocala Discovery Center!
