It's probably a weevil, but I don't know which kind, maybe a gold-dust weevil (Hypomeces squamosus).

We have one in The Netherlands that looks similar, except for the nose:

yes maybe this is almost the same

"does anyone know the other name of this insects. ??"
I can say at least that it belongs to the "superfamily" Curculionoidea within the order Coleoptera.
This "superfamily" contains many families with even more species. I cannot tell you the exact name of the species. It is so difficult because there are more than 350000(!) species of Coleoptera split in 179 families.

You know a lot about this, what your job.?

Long time ago at university my diploma thesis in biology had something to do with insects ... These animals are still one of my hobbies ...

I also liked the types of insects,
