I know this one!
Well, to subfamily, anyway:-) This one is in the subfamily Baridinae. You can tell by the way the one ventral segment protrudes between the pronotum (top of thorax), and the "shoulder" of the elytron (wing cover). No other weevils exhibit that character. I just learned that from keying out a specimen for a client. Very nice images, Charles!

Thanks for the ID Eric.
I almost over looked this little fellow while trying to get a picture of two mating milkweed bugs.
