an der kante eines blattes sitzt ein rüsselkäfer mit seiner seite zu uns gewandt. er ist länglich-oval, rundherum abgerundet, keine scharfen kanten und dabei kaum abgeflacht. er ist an sich schwarz, aber überall mit einem schütteren gelben flaum bestäubt, am kopf und rüssel etwas weniger. die deckflügel, die mehr als die hälfte der gesamtlänge inkl rüssel ausmachen gehen mit kaum erkennbarer fuge glatt in den halsschild über und der geht genauso glatt, aber durch einen etwas dunkleren rand abgegrenzt in den kopf über, der sich dann sanft zum recht dicken rüssel verjüngt. von dem gehen knapp hinter der spitze kurze in der mitte abgeknickte fühler aus.

I bought this awesome Medieval Weevils Lino print :blobcat:

Goober’s Etsy: etsy.com/uk/listing/4366386455

#WeevilWednesday #weevils

A black, grey and white Lino print of 5 weevils in different poses wearing suits of armour one on the left is holding a big sword and has another weevil standing on its back, standing in front is a smaller bard weevil playing a lute. Next is a large weevil with a caterpillar standing on its back wielding a lance in a way that seems to imitate the long weevil snoots, which points to a much smaller weevil in front standing by a bow snd wearing a quiver of arrows on its back. Behind the lance is a battle standard bearing a flag with a weevil standing up its 2 back legs. Below the print is handwritten text in pencil that says 40/150, ‘Medieval Weevils’ and the signature: “Goober”
Dieses Jahr habe ich zum ersten mal begeistert einige grössere Rüsselkäferarten im Garten entdeckt. Hier erkundet ein Langfühler-Breitrüssler die Moosblüte am Wasserrand.

Happy !

Female Black Vine Weevils (Otiorhynchus sulcatus) have the ability to reproduce parthenogenetically with fertilisation of eggs required to produce males, though no males have been observed

A dark brown, slightly fuzzy broad-nosed weevil on goldenrod flowers, with more bright yellow goldenrod in the background, almost silhouetting it. (An ant is out of focus in the foreground.)The same weevil on a different goldenrod stem, facing more sideways. The thin legs of an aphid can be seen also clinging to the stem, at the right edge of the picture.
