Myrmex carinicollis
antlike weevil
Myrmex carinicollis is a species of antlike weevil in the beetle family Curculionidae, described by Horn in 1895. The genus Myrmex comprises ant-mimicking weevils characterized by their compact body form and reduced rostrum that gives them a superficial resemblance to ants. This species is found in North America, though specific details about its biology and ecology remain poorly documented in the available literature.
Myrmex estriatus
Myrmex estriatus is a species of antlike weevil in the beetle family Curculionidae. The species was originally described by Casey in 1892 and is currently listed as a synonym of Otidocephalus estriatus in some taxonomic databases. Very few observations of this species exist in biodiversity databases. As a member of the antlike weevil genus Myrmex, it likely exhibits morphological adaptations resembling ants, though specific ecological details remain undocumented.
Myrmex knulli
antlike weevil
Myrmex knulli is a species of antlike weevil in the beetle family Curculionidae. It was described by Sleeper in 1954. The species is found in North America and includes two recognized subspecies: Myrmex knulli chiricahuae and Myrmex knulli knulli. Like other members of the genus Myrmex, it exhibits morphological adaptations resembling ants, a form of mimicry common in this weevil group.
Myrmex subglaber
antlike weevil
Myrmex subglaber is a species of ant-mimicking weevil in the family Curculionidae. The species was originally described by Schaeffer in 1907 under the genus Otidocephalus, and is currently classified under Myrmex. Like other members of this genus, it exhibits morphological adaptations resembling ants, a form of protective mimicry common in this weevil lineage. The species is native to North America.
