Liparus dirus
Liparus dirus is a species of weevils belonging to the family Curculionidae, subfamily Molytinae. Larvae and adults feed on Apiaceae species, mainly on Laserpitium latifolium, Laserpitium gallicum and Peucedanum cervaria. The adults grow up to 17–19 millimetres (0.67–0.75 in) long and can mostly be encountered from March through September. The colour of this beetle is completely black, with the surface of elytra finely and densely dotted, without stains. (Wikipedia)
