A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Project Noah Nature School
About an inch long. Dark grey, textured. It actually played dead and rolled over when the iPhone camera got too close, and stayed frozen when I uprighted it with a twig.
Found scrambling over sandstone in dry sclerophyll forest at the lookout at the end of the Box Vale Track near Mittagong, New South Wales.
Some kind of weevil?
Maybe this one: Black Short-nosed Weevil - ? Polyphrades sp.
