Weevil of some sort... - Sphenophorus sayi

Weevil of some sort... - Sphenophorus sayi
Salem, Marion County, Oregon, USA
June 14, 2010
Size: 9mm
Found while mowing. Next to patio crawling on straw. Made a great candidate for photography due to typical weevil sluggishness. Heavily armoured and hunkered down as a defence. I have never seen this particular type of weevil before;then again, it was pretty small and could easily be over-looked.
