It is very variable in colour, ranging from greenish to bright light blue. I think there is only one species. Adults are also variable in size and this variation is not sex dependent. The biology and behaviour of this weevil has been reviewed by me in papers 104 and 171 available as free pdf files from my website, www.calodema.com Best regards, Trevor Yes indeed this is the Botany Bay Diamond Weevil, Chrysolopus spectabilis.
