Huaca

Huaca is a genus of weevils in the family Curculionidae, described by Carl Johan Schoenherr in 1833. The genus belongs to the hyperdiverse weevil family, one of the largest families of organisms with over 40,000 described species. As a historically established genus in early coleopteran taxonomy, Huaca represents part of the 19th-century effort to classify the immense diversity of Neotropical weevils. The genus is currently accepted in modern taxonomic catalogs, though specific species-level diversity and biological details remain poorly documented in accessible literature.
