Which weevil? - Pissodes rotundatus
Atlantic Mine, Houghton County, Michigan, USA
June 3, 2012
I don't know what kind of weevil this is. I didn't remember to measure the size, but I think it was in the 4-8 mm range. It was climbing on the wall of an outbuilding, so I don't know the foodplant.

Pissodes sp.
doesn't look quite like the typical P. nemorensis. Maybe P. rotundatus?

Thank you
P. rotundatus does look pretty close, thanks!
