Captured this interesting video of a rice weevil (Sitophilus oryzae) on day 1 of exploring with the Foldscope. Can someone please explain what exactly is happening here? I’m unable to figure out.
If you can see, the weevil is trying to “get rid” of something with its hind legs. Is it an egg? Poop? Another insect?
I also noticed there is a small rupture of a sac, and spillage.
