Ottistirini is a weevil tribe in the beetle family Curculionidae. There are about 18 genera and more than 110 described species in Ottistirini. Most are found on Pacific islands, Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore. [1] [2] [3]
These 18 genera belong to the tribe Ottistirini: [2]
The insect tribe Stromboscerini is part of the weevil family Curculionidae, subfamily Dryophthorinae. It is a small and little-known weevil group. Alonso-Zarazaga & Lyal (1999) treated it as a subfamily.
Dryophthorinae is a weevil subfamily within the family Curculionidae. While it is not universally accepted as distinct from other curculionid subfamilies, at least one major recent revision elevated it to family rank, as Dryophthoridae
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.
Pachyrhynchini is a true weevil tribe in the subfamily Entiminae.
Lechriopini is a tribe of true weevils in the beetle family Curculionidae. There are more than 20 genera and 510 described species in Lechriopini.
Bagoinae is a weevil subfamily in the family Curculionidae. It is sometimes classified in Molytinae.
Eupholini is a weevil tribe in the subfamily Entiminae.
Hormorini is a weevil tribe in the subfamily Entiminae.
Nastini is a weevil tribe in the subfamily Entiminae.
Nothognathini is a weevil tribe in the subfamily Entiminae.
Polycatini is a weevil tribe in the subfamily Entiminae.
Polydrusini is a weevil tribe in the subfamily Entiminae.
Tropiphorini is a tribe of weevils in the subfamily Entiminae.
Zygopini is a tribe of twig and stem weevils in the beetle family Curculionidae. There are more than 20 genera and at least 250 described species in Zygopini. 83 species are currently known from the 11 genera occurring north of South America, 8 genera occur exclusively in South America, and 2 are recorded from Africa.
Conoderinae is a subfamily of true weevils in the beetle family Curculionidae. There are more than 210 genera in 15 tribes, and about 2,400 described species in Conoderinae. The thirty-nine extant genera of Conoderinae known to occur in North America, Central America, and the Caribbean are reviewed based on external morphology.
Mesoptiliinae is a subfamily of true weevils in the family Curculionidae. There are at about 23 genera and 40 described species in Mesoptiliinae.
Helmoreus is a genus of fungus weevil which was circumscribed by the New Zealand entomologist Beverley Holloway in 1982. The generic name honors the scientific illustrator Des Helmore. It is found in New Zealand, Australia, and New Caledonia. It is in the tribe Stenocerini.
Piazurini is a tribe of true weevils in the beetle family Curculionidae. There are about 12 genera and more than 400 described species in Piazurini.
Othippiini is a tribe of true weevils in the beetle family Curculionidae. Of the eight genera in Othippiini, only Egiona and Othippia are not monotypic. Acoptus suturalis is the only species of the tribe found in the New World.
Amycterus is a genus of weevils belonging to the Amycterini tribe in the family Curculionidae, first described by Carl Johan Schönherr in 1823. The decisions for synonymy are based on work by Alonso-Zarazaga, M.A. and Lyal, C.H.C. and Elwood Zimmerman.
