My first beetle picture for the site! Catalonia, 19 August 2009. I'd be very interested to know what it is!

Hi Matthew,
I think it can be Curculio (Curculio) elephas (Gyllenhal 1836) ... but it is better to wait for the experts ;)

Yes, it is Curculio sp., probably C.elephas (c.f. http://www.biol.uni.wroc.pl/cassidae/Co ... lephas.htm ), but I must have a look at it to Weevils check-list of spain (Alonzo-Zarazaga) :roll: .

Thank you Petr and Claudio - this extraordinary looking beetle does look very similar to your suggestion! ;)
