Orchestes alni is a species of weevil native to Europe. [2] [3] [4] Reports of this species in North America were misidentifications of the closely-related species, Orchestes steppensis . [5]
Orchestes is a genus of beetles either classified in the subfamily Rhynchaeninae or in the tribe Rhamphini of the subfamily Curculioninae, of the family Curculionidae. It encompasses six species in North America, including Orchestes steppensis, and more in Eurasia. It was previously regarded as a synonym of Rhynchaenus, which is now used with a much more restricted definition. The name Pedetes has been used as a manuscript name for this genus around 1799, but not published as a valid name.
Rhynchaenus is a genus of beetles alternatively placed in the subfamily Rhynchaeninae or in Curculioninae, of family Curculionidae. It previously included members of the genus Orchestes, but is now restricted to a vastly smaller group of species, all of which occur in Europe, Japan, or North Africa and feed on plants in the family Asteraceae. Reports of its occurrence in North America refer to Orchestes species.
