Rhyncolus cercocarpus
Rhyncolus cercocarpus is a species of true weevil described by Thatcher in 1940. The specific epithet 'cercocarpus' references its association with mountain mahogany (genus Cercocarpus), a favored host plant of related beetle groups. As a member of the genus Rhyncolus, it belongs to a group of weevils typically associated with woody plants. The species is known to occur in North America, though detailed biological information remains limited.
