Toby, the beetle is a Lasiorhynchites spp., which belongs in the family rhynchitidae. This family is distinct from the true weevils (curculionidae). There are three very similar species in the genus Lasiorhynchites and I'm not sure which one you have here. Nice find.

The nymph, Miridae. Looks like an early instar nymph of Rhabdomiris striatellus.
