A pair of Entiminae (broad-nosed weevils) is mating on a wooden window frame in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on August 12, 2024. Weevils are beetles belonging to the superfamily Curculionoidea, known for their elongated snouts. They are typically small, usually less than 6 mm in length, and herbivorous. This group also includes bark beetles, which, although morphologically different from other weevils due to their lack of the distinctive snout, are a subfamily of Curculionidae. Many weevils are considered pests because of their ability to damage and kill crops. (Photo by Soumyabrata Roy/NurPhoto via Getty Images)
