Conotrachelini - Acalles

Bob Anderson says, "I think it's an Acalles maybe A.minutissimus

"But there is another similar looking new one from the seeds/pods of red mangrove."

Moved from Pseudoacalles nuchalis.

Red Mangrove

Thanks for this information. Interestingly this part of Palm Beach is as far away from any appreciable numbers of Rhizophora mangle as one can get, with the fully-developed intracoastal areas and little natural areas left. I'm sure there are patches of it here and there, but I can't think of a place with a lot of it for a number of miles.

A. sablensis?

Looks pretty solid for A. sablensis based on this photo and description, actually.

Not so much similarity to minutissimus to my eye:
