This little fellow paid us a visit today. (Portugal)
Thanks to #Biodiversity4All, I've tentatively identified it as Lixus pulverulentus, but would love to know if that's correct.
@alexwild, do you have any clue?

Another Brooklyn naturalist friend and I are obsessed with this species. Between the two of us, we have >1/3 of all the observations on iNaturalist!

An illustration of the variation in rostrum morphology associated with dietary variation across the weevil genus Curculio. Not a very good reproduction, but nice to see the distribution of families, genera, and tissues---fruit vs gall---used by this genus.

To accompany the weevil video, a very nice set of weevil glamour photos, reared from red oak acorns.
