Proof there might be a soulmate for everyone. Got the id from the experts. Another new species for me. Once again there is no common name and almost no information to be found about it. Bugguide doesn't show it in Texas. iNaturalist had one in Fort Worth. She seems to be either eating or just face planted during mating. From the family of snout & bark beetles. Odd but cool looking lil critters. On giant ragweed.
Male & Female Snout & Bark beetles (Lixus perforatus)
Giant Ragweed (Ambrosia trifida)
