Anthribidae
fungus weevils
Anthribidae is a family of beetles commonly known as fungus weevils, distinguished from true weevils (Curculionidae) by their straight, non-elbowed antennae. Members of this family typically possess thread-like antennae that may exceed body length, representing the longest antennae among all Curculionoidea. The labrum appears as a separate segment from the clypeus, and maxillary palps are notably long and projecting. Most species feed on fungi or decaying plant matter, with larvae developing within dead wood. Some members exhibit unusual feeding habits: Choraginae includes seed-feeding species, a few are stored product pests, and the genus Anthribus uniquely preys upon soft scale insects.

Attelabidae
Leaf-rolling Weevils, Giraffe Weevils
Attelabidae is a widespread family of primitive weevils characterized by straight antennae inserted near the base of the rostrum. The family includes approximately 2,500 species globally, with subfamilies exhibiting distinct reproductive behaviors. Attelabinae are true leaf rollers, where females cut and roll leaves to create cradles for egg deposition and larval development. Rhynchitinae (sometimes treated as a separate family) have larvae that develop in flower buds, fruits, terminal shoots, or as leaf miners. Some members, particularly in the genus Trachelophorus, possess elongated necks and are known as giraffe weevils.

Attelabinae
leaf-rolling weevils
Attelabinae is a subfamily of leaf-rolling weevils within the beetle family Attelabidae. It comprises at least 20 genera and over 690 described species. Members are characterized by specialized leaf-rolling behaviors used in reproduction, where females construct leaf rolls to protect eggs and developing larvae. The subfamily is distributed across North America from Canada to Panama, with documented host associations including chestnuts (Castanea) and various flowering plants.

Brachybamus
marsh weevils
Brachybamus is a genus of marsh weevils (family Brachyceridae) established by Germar in 1835. The genus contains at least three described species: B. electus, B. inceratus, and B. pipitzi. These beetles are associated with marsh and wetland habitats, consistent with their common name. The family placement has varied historically, with some sources listing Brachyceridae and others Erirhinidae, reflecting ongoing taxonomic revisions in the weevil superfamily Curculionoidea.

Brachybamus electus
marsh weevil
Brachybamus electus is a species of weevil in the family Brachyceridae, commonly referred to as a marsh weevil. It belongs to the superfamily Curculionoidea, which encompasses all weevils and their relatives. The species was described by Germar in 1833 and is provisionally accepted in modern taxonomic databases. It has been recorded in North America, specifically in Québec, Canada.

Brachyceridae
Brachyceridae is a family of weevils (Coleoptera: Curculionoidea) containing at least 150 genera. The family has been treated historically as a subfamily of Curculionidae, but is now recognized as distinct. Some constituent genera, such as Absoloniella, contain blind, wingless species restricted to Mediterranean regions. The family belongs to the superfamily Curculionoidea, placing it among the true weevils.

Eugnamptus pallidus
leaf rolling weevil
Eugnamptus pallidus is a species of leaf rolling weevil in the beetle family Attelabidae. The species was described by Shaeffer in 1908. As a member of the Attelabidae, it belongs to a group of weevils known for their distinctive behavior of rolling or folding leaves to create shelters for their eggs and larvae. The specific name 'pallidus' refers to its pale coloration.

Euxenus
Euxenus is a genus of fungus weevils in the family Anthribidae, comprising approximately 14 described species. The genus was established by John Lawrence LeConte in 1876. Members of this genus are part of the diverse weevil superfamily Curculionoidea, though unlike true weevils (Curculionidae), anthribids lack the elongated snout characteristic of that family.

Exapion ulicis
Gorse Seed Weevil
Exapion ulicis is a small seed-feeding weevil specialized on gorse (Ulex europaeus). Adults are light gray with a prominent snout roughly half the body length. The species is native to western Europe and has been introduced to New Zealand, California, Hawaii, and other regions as a biological control agent targeting invasive gorse populations. Larval feeding destroys seeds within pods, reducing plant spread, while adult feeding on stems and spines causes minor damage.
