Marquesaan Long-snouted Weevil (Curculionidae gen. & sp.)
The Marquesaan Long-snouted Weevil (not an official name) is known from subfssil remains found on one of the Marquesas Islands.
The species reached a size of about 0,2 cm; it was blackish colored and its head had an elongated snout that made up about the half of its full length.
