Hi everyone,
I found this weevil (and several friends) around my tomato plants - I think it could be a vine weevil - can anyone help with ID?

Nice find Dave, it's a Black vine weevil I think.

Nice capture and yes it looks like a Black Vine Weevil (Otiorhynchus sulcatus) :) ...

Thanks for the help & comments Alby and Gordon.
Does anyone know of any good books (or websites) to help with ID ?
