Lepilius

Lepilius is a genus of weevils in the family Curculionidae, established by G.C. Champion in 1905. The genus belongs to the superfamily Curculionoidea, the largest group of beetles characterized by their distinctive elongated snout (rostrum). As a relatively obscure genus, specific biological details remain limited in published literature. Members are presumed to share the general weevil body plan with modified mouthparts at the tip of the rostrum.
