Lily Weevil (Brachycerus labrusca)
Family Curculionidae
A large, flightless beetle, about 2cm in length and are fairly common in the Pretoria and Pilansberg areas although I do not know where else in SA they are found as there is no distribution map available.
Not much information can be found about them except that they feed on certain lilies.
