I keep finding these small, square-ish weevils in Ox-eye Daisy flowers, can anyone say what they are? Found in southern England in the last 2 weeks.  Size about 3-4mm.

Hello, Chris! It's Anthonomus rubi, a frequent visitor of yellow composite flowers. Best regards, Jürgen -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Juergen Peters Borgholzhausen, Germany WWW: http://insektenfo... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= |
