Ophryastes turbinatus is a species in the subfamily Entiminae ("broad-nosed weevils"), in the suborder Polyphaga ("water, rove, scarab, long-horned, leaf and snout beetles"). [1] [2] [3] It is found in North America. [2]

Entiminae subfamily of insects

The Entiminae are a large subfamily in the weevil family Curculionidae, containing most of the short-nosed weevils, including such genera as Otiorhynchus, Phyllobius, and Sitona. Some of these weevils are notorious pests of major economic importance.

Polyphaga suborder of insects

Polyphaga is the largest and most diverse suborder of beetles. It comprises 144 families in 16 superfamilies, and displays an enormous variety of specialization and adaptation, with over 300,000 described species, or approximately 90% of the beetle species so far discovered.
