If I remember some rainy days in Costa Rica, it is probably the best way to survive ;-)...
Perhaps it's in catalepsy... ?
As I recall, it was the only clear shot that I got. It was in the rain, last year...
Yes, I also think it is a Curculionidae, playing dead?
Looks like being a Conoderinae/Zygopinae.

Any other pictures?
Maybe this is a Cucrulionidae coleoptera or a close family...
Another Costa Rican jewel you have spotted here, MatthewKritzer.
