Xestolabus is a genus of leaf-rolling weevils in the family of beetles known as Attelabidae. There are at least 30 described species in Xestolabus. [1] [2] [3] [4]

Attelabidae family of insects

The Attelabidae is a widespread family of weevils. They are among the primitive weevils, because of their straight antennae, which are inserted near the base of the rostrum. The prothorax is much narrower than the base of the elytra on the abdomen. Attelabidae and the related family Rhynchitidae are known commonly as the leaf-rolling weevils. Rhynchitidae may be treated as subfamily Rhychitinae of the Attelabidae.
