cute
Great macro of a tiny creature.
I agree injica :)! At one site they described a similar photo of a bug like this as "a bug that looks like a cross between an elephant and a teddy bear"...
So cute ;)
Snuitkever is an appropriate name!
This guy might also grow up and become an Elephant weevil - Orthorhinus cylindrirostris :)
Thanks KarenL & Luis Stevens
Nice!
Very nice!
Might be the Mango seed weevil... Sternochetus mangiferae
He is such an ungainly looking creature. Cute tho'
