Description

Phyllobius virideaeris Rüsselkäfer this pretty beetle is very tiny. Approximately like its eye in this photo. (3.5 - 4 mm) But like all snout beetle is it no more pleasantly associated for the plants. This beetle nourishes itself of the sheets of willow and poplar, in addition, of herbs. The larvae, which eat plant roots, are correctly unpleasant. wish you a beautiful day!!!! ....many thanks for the nice remarks and favorites on my previous photos!

Snout beetles are wonderful creatures, unless you are a plant! This is an exquisite specimen. You do insect photography so incredibly well, and this is a perfect example! I love the colors, and the subject matter. Wonderful, perfect work.
