  • Prorutidosoma

    Prorutidosoma is a genus of broad-nosed weevils (Curculionidae: Entiminae) described by Korotyaev in 1999. It belongs to the tribe Rutidosomini, a group of small to medium-sized weevils primarily distributed in the Palearctic and Oriental regions. The genus was established to accommodate species previously placed in related genera, particularly those sharing characteristics with Rutidosoma but distinguished by specific morphological features of the rostrum and genitalia. As a relatively recently described genus, its species composition and biology remain incompletely documented.
