  1. Love the clarity Posted 4 years ago
    1. Thanks Niel - just a tad out of focus or motion-blur or something on this one. The other one is slightly sharper but had my thumb on it too close for a bigger crop *rolleyes*

Byctiscus betulae (Linnaeus, 1758) is a Tooth-nosed snout weevil (family Rhynchitidae) known from large parts of the Palaearctic region (from China to Europe). Traditionally the Rhynchitidae were classified as a subfamily in the Attelabidae, but the taxon has been granted full family status as a separate family now.
