Long-snouted Beetle Dude

9 March, 2010 Neil Leave a comment

Found her wandering around on my kitchen floor

And if anyone has an idea what species of beetle this is, I’d be interested to know (just for curiosity’s sake). This is one place where Google is of no help at all. When will be able to submit a picture as a search query?

UPDATE: There is TinEye, but my search failed because TinEye doesn’t search the content of the image. It tries to find the exact same image on the internet. I can use TinEye to check if someone uses the beetle in a derivative work, and whether I’ve been credited or not — so still nifty.

Important. The animal is made of resin and is breakable

Do you understand just how important this is?

That’s right. Not only do I have a camera, I also have a mirror.

I’m not really sure whether this will work or not, but I’m hoping it does.

Sign up for the Don’t Contact Me database and put a stop to sms, email, and telephone spam.

That, at least, is the theory. Perhaps it’s a trap. I’ll let you know whether my spam volumes are amplified in the near future.
