Field Notes

Description:

This one is a tree hugger. I suspect there is a mimicry asociation with the long nosed belid weevil http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/17964104 based on the lateral white stripe and the same habitat.

Thanks Maria dB. I've taken other shots of this but cannot resist another. Still the ID eludes me.

Thanks Argy Bee and ReikoS. We might have to determine if either species is toxic or foul tasting. Any volunteers?
