• Acmaeodera parkeri

  Acmaeodera parkeri is a species of metallic wood-boring beetle in the family Buprestidae, described by Cazier in 1940. The species occurs in Central America and North America, with records from the southwestern United States and Mexico. Adults have been observed visiting flowers of several plant species, including Allionia incarnata (creeping four o'clock), Talinum whitei (White's flameflower), and Evolvulus arizonicus (Arizona blue-eyes).

• Aphanommata

  Aphanommata is a genus of weevils (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Cossoninae) endemic to the Cape Verde archipelago in the Old World. The genus was erected by Wollaston in 1873 and currently includes three species from Cape Verde: A. euphorbiarum (Santo Antão), A. kuscheli (São Nicolau), and A. strakai (Fogo). A fourth species, A. filum, occurs elsewhere in the Old World. The genus has been subject to recent taxonomic revision including descriptions of larval morphology and analysis of vertical and inter-insular distribution patterns.

• 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.

• Lachnopus

  Lachnopus is a genus of broad-nosed weevils (Curculionidae: Entiminae: Geonemini) comprising 73 described species, making it the most diverse and widespread entimine weevil genus in the Caribbean Region. The genus was established by Schönherr in 1840 and has experienced unstable taxonomic placement, having been assigned to Cyphides, Barynotini, and currently Geonemini. Its validity as a distinct genus from Exophthalmus was confirmed by Franz (2012). Girón et al. (2018) recognized six species groups within the genus based on morphological phylogenetic analysis.

  Ripiphorus is a genus of wedge-shaped beetles comprising at least 30 described species. Members are parasitic beetles with highly modified body plans and complex life cycles involving multiple hosts. The genus has been recorded across multiple continents, with notable disjunct distributions including isolated volcanic archipelagos such as the Cape Verde Islands. Adults are typically short-lived and often associated with flowers, while larvae are parasitoids of other insects.

• Spintharus flavidus

  Spintharus flavidus is a cobweb spider in the family Theridiidae, historically considered a single widespread species ranging from northern North America to Brazil and throughout the Caribbean. Molecular phylogenetic analysis has rejected this hypothesis, revealing instead a 30 million year old radiation of at least 16 distinct species in the Caribbean region alone. Nearly all are short-range endemics with limited overwater dispersal ability. The Caribbean colonization event occurred approximately 30 million years ago, coinciding with the GAARLandia landbridge hypothesis.
