Looks like weevils (Curculionoidea), as a start, but that leaves many options. Posted 6 years ago

    Perhaps good to know, in dutch (and I imagine also in german), "bug" translates to insect, as in any insect or sometimes even any arthropod. So not specifically the order hemiptera.
    
    Sharing this because over here I've been corrected many times for calling something a bug, and then got pointed out it's not a bug :) Posted 6 years ago

      I'm thinking Phyllobius betulinus?
