Euophryum confine
A very small wood boring weevil measuring between 2.5 and 3mm in length. Euophryum confine was introduced into the UK from New Zealand in the 1930's and has since become widespread. Often found in houses, but it also occurs outdoors. We came across numerous adults on the trunk of a long dead and dry Beech in Warsop Wood, in late June 2010.
