Early snout beetle
This snout beetle has the privilege to be the first beetle I capture on photo this year. Because of the exceptionally cold spring in the Netherlands the nature is just emerging out of it's winter state and there are still only a few insects walking or flying around.
The quality of this photo is not that good, let's just say I have kept some room for improvement ;)
Specie might be Dorytomus longimanus, but there is no wiki of that specie.
Dutch name: Langsprietpopulierensnuitkever
