Rhytideres plicatus stands out with its multiple wrinkly textures and spoonbill face, possibly one of my favorite categories of weevil snout (a normal thing to have an opinion on). i know very little about this species, but i've only ever found them on rainy days. it's possible that this is just what happens when a normal weevil gets soggy

this soggy cardboard looking beast is Rhytideres plicatus, an especially odd weevil that i had never seen before. what really surprised me aside from its cheap papier mâché appearance is the fact that it belongs in Entiminae, or broad-nosed weevils, despite possessing a fairly impressive trunk compared to most members of the group
