Cnemidoprion
Cnemidoprion is a genus of weevils in the family Curculionidae, described by G.A.K. Marshall in 1933. The genus is part of the diverse superfamily Curculionoidea, which contains the majority of weevil species. As of current records, the genus has been documented in iNaturalist with 10 observations, indicating it is rarely encountered or poorly known. The etymology suggests Greek roots: 'cnemis' (leg or shin) and 'prion' (saw), possibly referring to leg or tibial characteristics.
