Taxonomic History

Listronotus lutulentus was originally described by Boheman in 1843. The has undergone taxonomic reclassification, having been previously placed in the Eupages as Eupages lutulentus. Current places it in Listronotus, though GBIF lists its status as a synonym with the accepted name being Eupages lutulentus, indicating ongoing taxonomic uncertainty or debate regarding its generic placement.

Data Deficiency

This represents a significant gap in entomological knowledge. With only three documented observations in citizen science databases and no published ecological or agricultural studies, L. lutulentus stands in contrast to better-known such as L. oregonensis (carrot weevil), L. maculicollis (), and L. setosipennis (Parthenium biocontrol agent), all of which have been extensively studied due to their economic importance.
