Ectemnorhinini is a weevil tribe in the subfamily Entiminae.
Bothrometopus – Canonopsis – Christensenia – Disker – Ectemnorhinus – Pachnobium – Palirhoeus
The Curculionidae are a family of weevils, commonly called snout beetles or true weevils. They are one of the largest animal families with 6,800 genera and 83,000 species described worldwide. They are the sister group to the family Brentidae.
Weevils are beetles belonging to the superfamily Curculionoidea, known for their elongated snouts. They are usually small – less than 6 mm in length – and herbivorous. Approximately 97,000 species of weevils are known. They belong to several families, with most of them in the family Curculionidae. It also includes bark beetles, which while morphologically dissimilar to other weevils in lacking the distinctive snout, is a subfamily of Curculionidae. Some other beetles, although not closely related, bear the name "weevil", such as the biscuit weevil, which belongs to the family Ptinidae.
The beetle subfamily Curculioninae is part of the weevil family Curculionidae. It contains over 23,500 described species in 2,200 genera, and is therefore the largest weevil subfamily. Given that the beetle order (Coleoptera) contains about one-quarter of all known organisms, the Curculioninae represent one of the – if not the – most successful radiations of terrestrial Metazoa.
The Entiminae are a large subfamily in the weevil family Curculionidae, containing most of the short-nosed weevils, including such genera as Entimus, Otiorhynchus, Phyllobius, Sitona, and Pachyrrhynchus. In comparison with their stunning diversity, only a few of these weevils are notorious pests of major economic importance. Entimines are commonly encountered in the field, including urban environments, and abundant in entomological collections.
Hadramphus, commonly known as knobbled weevils, is a genus of flightless molytine weevils from the family Curculionidae. It is endemic to New Zealand and consists of four species.
Dryotribini is a tribe of beetles in the subfamily Cossoninae.
Lechriopini is a tribe of true weevils in the beetle family Curculionidae. There are more than 20 genera and 510 described species in Lechriopini.
The Anypotactini are a Neotropical weevil tribe in the subfamily Entiminae. It includes 81 described species.
Eustylini is a primarily Neotropical weevil tribe in the subfamily Entiminae.
Ophryastini is a weevil tribe in the subfamily Entiminae.
Pandeleteius is a genus of broad-nosed weevils in the family Curculionidae. There are over 150 described species in Pandeleteius, distributed across the Americas. Most species in the genus were described by Anne Howden.
Myrmex is a genus of snout and bark beetles in the family Curculionidae. There are at least 30 described species in Myrmex.
Artipus is a genus of broad-nosed weevils in the beetle family Curculionidae. There are about 10 described species in Artipus.
Myllocerus is a genus of oriental broad-nosed weevils in the beetle family Curculionidae. There are at least 330 described species in Myllocerus.
Derelomini is a tribe of true weevils in the family of beetles known as Curculionidae. There are about five genera and eight described species in Derelomini.
Mesoptiliinae is a subfamily of true weevils in the family Curculionidae. There are at about 23 genera and 40 described species in Mesoptiliinae.
Gasterocercini is a tribe of hidden snout weevils in the family of beetles known as Curculionidae. There are at least four genera and about eight described species in Gasterocercini.
Apodrosus is a Caribbean genus of broad-nosed weevils in the subfamily Entiminae, tribe Polydrusini.
Oxyderces is a genus of broad-nosed weevils in the family Curculionidae distributed in South America. It can be recognized by the presence of dense setae on the apex of the rostrum and postocular setae.
Exorides is a genus of broad-nosed weevils in the family Curculionidae, tribe Eustylini, distributed in northern South America.
