Curculio nucum (nut weevil) is a medium-sized beetle, with an especially elongated snout, characteristic of the Curculionini tribe of the weevil family (Curculionidae). Its larvae develop in hazel nuts Corylus avellana, being a serious pest in hazenut orchards. It occurs in most of Europe, from south Sweden, Finland and Great Britain to the Mediterranean.

This is not intended to be a dry lexicon. Personal stories and sensitive articles form the framework for our pictures: „Franz and his journey into the world of humans“
Franz, the friendly seed beetle, wakes up as a human one morning and uses his new abilities to improve the world of arthropods.
