Not having much luck finding this particular weevil. It is probably something obvious once pointed out.

This insect is on a white towel.

Cool
Dan,
I like weevils but I've never seen anything like this. it looks like some hybrid made with spare parts. Looks sorta like a catfish from behind. Can't wait to find out what it is. Whatever, I'm sure this was a good find.
