Primitive weevil (Brentidae) - stock photo

This is an Amorphocephala seen from above. Notice the weird base of the antenna with brushes and the narrow snout. The entire beetle measures about 12mm and is narrow. They are night active and feed on fungi and xylophage insects and their larvae. Females drill holes in wood and lay eggs in them. Males often have distinct mandibles. They are attracted to lights.
