    The scarlet lily beetle has black legs. There are other species with red legs in this genus, but the head is red, smaller with big eyes. This is a Hazel leaf-roller - Apoderus coryli.

      Darryl, as a quick note: Wildflower will not see your reply if you post below her. You should reply to her (see reply link below her comment) to make her receive a notification. Posted 10 years ago

        This is true as a general remark, but I have disabled the notifications so it doesn't matter. I usually follow the replies to my comments from the activity log. I changed the ID because Darryl suggested so. Posted 10 years ago, modified 10 years ago

      Oh, one other thing I forgot to mention: the reason wildflower did not change the ID herself is out of courtesy. I you change it yourself, you will get the points/medal for the identification, which is what we generally want. Posted 10 years ago

        fchristant, I am aware of the ID point system. That is why I suggested WildFlower ID it as she, well actually IDed it ^_^ so the points should fall to her :) Posted 10 years ago

The Apoderus coryli

Apoderus coryli, common name Hazel-leaf Roller Weevil, is a species of leaf-rolling beetles belonging to the family Attelabidae subfamily Attelaninae. Because of the trunk-like elongated head, it is often mistakenly attributed to the weevils.
