I brought seeds back from Hawaii (Ipomoea pes-caprae) and these little buggers have been hatching out like crazy. I keep the seeds in double plastic so none of them get loose. I also squish them as soon as they come out. Anybody know what type of insect it is?
This beetle belongs to a group known as bean or seed weevils. However, they are not true weevils, but a subfamily (Bruchinae) in the family Chrysomelidae (leaf beetles). See [HYPERLINK@www.biodiversityexplorer.org] and [HYPERLINK@en.wikipedia.org] for more information.
