Korean giant weevil


Giant weevil - Sipalinus gigas (Fabricius,1775) / Rhynchophoridae
This is the largest among weevil species in Korea.
I met this on the road while I was riding a bicycle to home from my family's farm.
It slowly crawled across the road and tried to hide in the bottom of the tree.
