Fly-mimicking weevil communicates by drumming with snout

This little Weevil from the Amazon rainforest of Ecuador is about 5 mm in size and mimics a Flesh Fly, which protects it from predators such as birds because they do not waste time trying to catch what seems to be such swift prey.

As shown in this video, these Weevils communicate with their partners by drumming with the snout on a leaf. When two weevils reside on the same leaf they alternate in drumming. Vibrational communication is known from other insects, such as Treehoppers.
