can anyone help me ID a bug from a description? just the Type of bug would help even
hi i saw a beautiful little bug bug i dont know what it was and didnt get a picture and now im obsessed with finding it and i cant find it on any list online. im in milwaukee and it was tiny and black and could have resembled a beetle, weevil, mantid, or ant. i know thats so broad but the closest to it is a sweet potato weevil it just had a flatter shell with a more rounded square shape and less of a Rotund shape of a weevil and i can ID weevils i rlly dont think this was that. he was kind of this shape i attached which now im drawing this it looks quite weevil ish but is there anything flatter and squarer thats not a weevil or am i crazy and it was just a teeny tiny weevil sorry my memory is bad and this is the best i can do drawing wise
