One of the world’s most colorful weevils, Eupholus schoenherrii lives in New Guinea and surrounding islands. After pupating, the weevil takes on its famous, charismatic form with a long rostrum (snout). These specialized mouthparts allow weevils to bore into vegetation. This weevil feeds on wild yam, which is poisonous to most other animals. Its bright colors warn would-be predators that this weevil makes an unpleasant meal. Measuring 3.5 inches wide, this embroidered patch is ready for adventure when you iron it onto your jacket, vest, or bag. Show more
