Field Notes
Description:
About 20 mm long, this black weevil looked primitive with its heavy, leathery-looking thorax and ridged elytra. Anterioirly the pronotum appeared to be drawn out to a bifurcated appendage. The snout was short and antennae were elbowed.
A pair of claspers ( like pincers) could be seen at the rear end of the abdomen.
Habitat:
Found clinging to native grass -Lomandra
