Adrian Jones' photos with the keyword: watercress

A tiny weevil found in a packet of Watercress bought from a supermarket. I'm unsure as to its country of origin, the watercress simply said produce of more than one country! I have a feeling it may have originally been partly covered in scales, there are some left on the elytra edges and sides of the abdomen. It now sitting in a plastic pot on my desk being fed regularly on various plants from the garden, its amazing it managed to survive at all. Taken at 5x magnification.
