Milkweed Weevil larvae and pupa

Milkweed Weevil larvae and pupa
North Laurel, Howard County, Maryland, USA
September 3, 2021
Larvae discovered at the bottom of a mesh cage, presumably emerged from the common milkweed used to feed monarch caterpillars. The larvae were removed and set aside 9/17, and today (9/13) pupae were observed. I don't see other images of the larvae and pupae of this species online, so I wanted to submit them here for future reference.
