Last Saturday, at Sestrica, Aragon, Spain.

Exlusively at Cistus ladanifer (in the zone are other species of Cistus, but without these weevils).

In Quercus suber forest with Cistus and Calluna.

About 1,3 mm. long.

PS. Dont believe faunaeur.org (Port., Spain, France), we have this weevil in the Netherlands and Germany too.

I'll say it to a specialist in another coleoptera families (Buprestidae, Cerambycidae, Chrysomelidae, Carabidae and Elateridae) who collected the exemplar. He don't knew the name, now he will be very happy!!!

You are the best! Wink
