Wattle weevil, Curculionidae, Chrysolopus spectabilis

Kanangra Boyd National Park, NSW

I have always liked weevils, which are beetles of the family Curculionidae. It is one thing I have in common with a/the creator.
Weevils are the most diverse and prolific group of insects, with hundreds of thousands of species found across the world.
