As a member of the Curculionidae, it possesses the characteristic elongated rostrum typical of weevils. The species is documented from Belgium, though its full distribution may be broader.
Auleutes ater
minute seed weevil
Auleutes ater is a species of minute seed weevil in the family Curculionidae. It is found in North America. The species is classified as provisionally accepted in taxonomic databases, indicating some uncertainty regarding its current taxonomic status or placement within the genus.
Ceutorhynchus anthonomoides
minute seed weevil
Ceutorhynchus anthonomoides is a minute seed weevil in the family Curculionidae, first described by Dietz in 1896. The species is known from North America. It belongs to a large genus of weevils commonly associated with plants in the mustard family (Brassicaceae), though specific host associations for this species remain unconfirmed. Available information is limited to basic taxonomic and distributional data.
Ceutorhynchus bolteri
minute seed weevil
Ceutorhynchus bolteri is a species of minute seed weevil in the beetle family Curculionidae, described by Dietz in 1896. It belongs to a large genus of small weevils associated with plants, particularly in the family Brassicaceae. The species is recorded from North America, with specific distribution records from British Columbia, Canada.
Ceutorhynchus lecontei
minute seed weevil
Ceutorhynchus lecontei is a species of minute seed weevil in the family Curculionidae. It was described by Colonnelli in 1979. The species is known to occur in North America, with records from Canada including Alberta, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan. As a member of the genus Ceutorhynchus, it belongs to a group of small weevils associated with seeds of various plants.
Ceutorhynchus medialis
Ceutorhynchus medialis is a species of minute seed weevil in the beetle family Curculionidae, described by LeConte in 1876. It is a small weevil species found in North America, with confirmed records from Ontario and Québec in Canada.

Homorosoma sulcipenne
minute seed weevil
Homorosoma sulcipenne is a species of minute seed weevil in the family Curculionidae. It is a small beetle species recorded from several Canadian provinces and territories. The species was described by John Lawrence LeConte in 1876. Observations of this species remain relatively sparse, with limited ecological documentation available.
Rhinoncomimus
Rhinoncomimus is a genus of minute seed weevils in the family Curculionidae, established by Wagner in 1940. The genus comprises approximately eight described species distributed in Eastern Asia, with China representing a center of diversity. One species, R. latipes (the mile-a-minute weevil), has been extensively studied and deployed as a biological control agent for the invasive vine Persicaria perfoliata in North America. The genus is characterized by host associations with Polygonaceae, particularly Persicaria and Polygonum species.
